Fasting and bone marrow edema

Would fasting help improve and heal a bone with an edema? I have a bone marrow edema of the lunate, in my wrist, and was wondering if anyone knows or had studies done on bones and fasting. ?

Answer

That’s a new one for me, no studies that I know of. Then again, not too much great science on this stuff anyway, we’re all kind of experimenting.

I’d say give a couple days a try and see how you feel. Or start with 24 hours.

Bone broth (homemade only) might be something that could help you as an aside. Animal-based foods in general are great for structural repairs to the body.
