cyclical fasting for rapid reversal of risk.

Fasting after a period of time, according to a number of researchers, puts your cells into survival mode. Could this mode make it harder for a virus to get inside a cell and takeover the reproduction machinery?

I don't know about ACE2 expression. I'm basing it on the original studies in the 90s of metabolic syndrome. Lowering of triglycerides was immediate before weight loss. The important ratio was triglycerides/HDL. These were shown to change in days reflecting reversal of the syndrome.

Changes in protein expression is an unknown. Fasting will throw people quickly into autophagy which is part of the reversal in protein expression.

Ping me again later on the new thread and I will do some more digging.
