THE BOOK: Vegan Intermittent Fasting, by Dr Petra Bracht and Mira Flatt. Murdoch Books, RRP $45Intermittent fasting has many fans including Petra Bracht, a general practitioner and natural health therapist. She bases her enthusiasm on her experience — she has practised intermittent fasting for more than 40 years. However, she says long-term fasting does not work for everyone, but it can be worth giving it a try. "Do some experimenting with your mealtimes, with the length of the fasting period, with the number of meals per day."
