      Where did the photos come from?  HubPages only allows us to use Creative  Commons licensed photos.  Using photos without permission is considered theft.
      
      As Alicia has noted, you have made a lot of medical claims in your article.  Due the requirements of Google, HubPages does not allow us to publish medical information unless the author is a medical professional or cites reputable sources such as peer-reviewed journals to back up their claims.
      
      All of this is clearly spelled out in the Learning Center (Help button, upper right) which you should familiarize yourself with before writing on this platform.

   Hi. There is too much blue text in your article. You need to reduce the amount.
   
   You've written a health article and therefore need to include authoritative references for all of the biology and medical facts that you've mentioned.
   
   You have linked fasting to some serious diseases and you've implied that supplements help them. Any implied benefits for the disease must be supported by authoritative medical sources. If you can't find these sources, you need to delete any suggestion of benefit from your article.
   
   The quotation in the article is very long. In addition, you don't say anything about the author's qualifications. You need to explain why readers should trust him. If he's not a health professional or scientist, you need to support his statements with reliable references.

   The issue with posting claims about treating or preventing disease is unless you are referring to an FDA-approved drug it is actually illegal in the US.
