Fasting activates your brain by boosting neuronal autophagy, which is the process by which cells recycle waste material and repair themselves. The brain depends highly on neuronal autophagy in fact, a study revealed that when the process was interrupted, neurodegeneration was induced. Bottom line, the brain cannot  develop nor function as it should without neuronal autophagy, and fasting for a short period helps boost the process.
