Agreed as to your finale, most people have a pop culture understanding of physiology, but remain vehemently opposed to certain ideas largely accepted by alternative health communities. (And the functions, for those of you still unclear, are many including balancing the blood pH and removing actual toxins from the body.)
However, regarding fasting, one of the most recent studies (<1month, dec19) around is pretty compelling.(0) Though the breakdown is 6/18 vice 8/16 and it seems they do advocate for a weekly fast of 5/2 days (eat/fast). How's that for a weekend?

>...many people have very successful careers in one field despite having a degree in a completely different field...
This sounds a great deal like transfer learning. Applying format, structures, and approaches to unrelated fields. Much of an engineering degree is designed around learning to learn well. That's the only degree I can speak of, but it has been my understanding that other programs have similar intent.
