If you want to see more on this go to YouTube. Find the video called “Fasting for Survival” by Dr. Pradip Jamnadas.
In my opinion this doctor has helped tens of thousands of people learn to improve their own health.
BTW - you can’t make money “selling” fasting. But it works better than anything you can buy.
Yup, good point.
Intermittent fasting or “time restricted eating” doesn’t cost anything, they can’t make any money on that. Notice they are talking about coming up with an injection to mimic exercise.
Mitochondria will happily run on sugar too. Fasting can induce ketosis and autophagy. Exercise coupled along WITH intermittent fasting is a great way go, but I am more interested in what works than what just sounds good.
It is not always easy, but it is simple. I lost over 50 pounds several years ago and maybe more importantly haven’t found them since. No exercise is required to do this. I am a proponent of exercise, but I am also realistic. Most people can’t or won’t exercise (or very little) and, they have been led to believe that is the only way.
Another “excuse” for exercise is bad joints, or knee problems etc. “Oh darn, my doctor says I should try swimming, but the nearest pool is a half hour drive.” Etc.
Of course some people truly cannot exercise. They aren’t making any excuses. But they should know they don’t have to actually exercise to get many of those benefits.
