Dr. Berg answers the question why muscle loss doesn’t occur during fasting. It has to do with this one single hormone called Human Growth Hormone which protects and preserves body protein.  When doing this fasting or intermittent fasting, the human growth hormone is triggered in very large quantities. Fat as a fat-burning fuel and muscle as the last ditch effort to help with starvation will also be discussed.   Exercise is the main tool that helps build muscle while fasting or intermittent fasting is a tool to protect and preserve the muscle, as well as its reparative functions from being lost.
