What if the real healing doesn’t end when the fast is over—but actually begins?
In this reflective video recorded out on the trail, Dr. Tallis Barker (D.Phil., Nat.Dip.) shares personal insights just two weeks after completing a 7-day water fast. He explores a powerful truth that many people overlook: the body’s regenerative processes often continue long after the fasting period ends, thanks to the sustained effects on the immune system, hormonal reset, and post-fasting growth factor release.
Drawing on both personal experience and therapeutic coaching, Dr. Tallis explains how long-standing injuries—like the nagging ankle pain he had for months—can suddenly begin to heal after the fast is completed. This delayed recovery is not just anecdotal: it’s linked to deeper biological processes such as immune reprogramming, tissue repair via macrophage activity, and the body’s prioritization of internal organ recovery before turning to the muscles and extremities. Whether you’re curious about fasting for chronic inflammation, injury recovery, or metabolic reset, this video will challenge your assumptions and open up new ways of thinking about healing, rebuilding, and how the body truly regenerates in the days and weeks after a water fast.
