About the expert
Focus: Supervised water-only fasting; whole-food plant-based dietary intervention
Founder of TrueNorth Health Center, where he has overseen 25,000+ medically supervised water-only fasts. Has published over 20 peer-reviewed articles on supervised fasting in hypertension, weight loss, and selected metabolic conditions. Advocates a strict whole-food plant-based diet alongside supervised fasting protocols. Cancer-specific case-series claims are real but not mainstream oncology, and the strict dietary framing goes beyond standard nutrition guidelines.

I Supervised 25,000 Fasts: How 72 Hours Without Food Is Linked To Cancer
Supervised water-only fasting is a real clinical intervention with peer-reviewed studies in hypertension, weight loss, and metabolic conditions. The cancer-specific claims (especially case-series on reversal) are stronger than independent evidence supports. Fasting may have a role alongside standard cancer treatment, but is not a substitute for it.
