Abstract: The hunger minimized fasting system relies on providing a blood glucose level at all times in the range of 5 to 10 mM, satisfying glucose needs of the brain and metabolizing blood glucose through anaerobic glycolysis to release ATP at the extramitocontrial portion of the cell. Consuming only solid free nutrient liquids eliminates brain hunger response. Liquids consumed during fasting include solid filtered vegetable soup and clear fruit juices of 8 to 12 ounces taken every 2 to four hours having calorie deficiency of 600 to 1400 as compared to minimal daily calorie requirements for an adult. Fat released from storage is metabolized by ATP produced by glycolysis at the extramitocontrial location and enters the interior of the mitochondria, enabling the TCA cycle. Weight loss observed during fasting is about one half to one pound per day.
