I guess I'm surprised that Dr. Fung is putting his name on the book.
Or am I missing something?

I view this as a good team effort and the way I view Moore's recent experience with a long fast is that he usually does his N=1 research for any book he's writing. It will be interesting to read about long fasts in the book to see if there are any cautions or informational guidelines regarding this coming from Jimmy's experience. I don't view his recent long fast as a failure at all. He had some unexpected occurrences, but from what I've read, he indicated it was a good experience and surprisingly easy for most of the fasting period. While many have chimed in with critical comments and interpretations about the effectiveness of his fast, Jimmy tends to attract many critics, so I try and wade through those comments and get the facts from the source.
