Hi everyone,

Ever heard of Dopamine fasting?! I hadn't till I saw this video....

*************

A few years ago, the 'dopamine fast' trend found a number of followers especially in the tech industry, such as Silicon Valley.

The purpose of dopamine fasting is to isolate oneself from the unhealthy stimuli of the modern world, like electronics and social media. The idea is that it allows your brain a chance to recharge and reset for a short period of time.

What are the effects of this? Does it work, and is it backed up by science?

Interesting.
