“Dr. Patrick explains some of the early evidence that suggests the value prolonged fasting (48+ hours) may have from the standpoint of tissue rejuvenation and healthspan maintenance, as well as relevance for other more specific conditions.”

“When produced during exercise (especially high intensity workouts like cycling, which shifts metabolism toward glycolysis to more quickly meet the high energetic demands), lactate switches on more than 600 genes involved in muscle adaptation, stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis – the process of making new mitochondria – and promotes protein synthesis, which is essential for muscle growth.”

“The body has elegant mechanisms that allow it to utilize non-carbohydrate substrates to generate glucose. Gluconeogenesis is a metabolic pathway in which the liver produces glucose from non-carbohydrate substrates including glucogenic amino acids (from protein) and glycerol (from lipids).”

“A dose-response meta-analysis of 30 prospective studies, including more than 1.18 million participants, associated each additional daily cup with about a 6 percent lower incidence of type 2 diabetes, with similar patterns for caffeinated and decaf coffee.”

“In the 521,330-person EPIC cohort, participants in the highest country-specific quartile of coffee intake had lower all-cause mortality over an average 16.4 years than nonconsumers. The association was observational, with hazard ratios of 0.88 in men and 0.93 in women.”

“In a randomized crossover study of 18 young men with overweight or obesity, ten three-minute walking or squat breaks spaced every 45 minutes across 8.5 hours lowered post-meal glucose exposure more than uninterrupted sitting or one continuous 30-minute walk.”

“In more than 25,000 adults who reported no leisure-time exercise, a median of three one- or two-minute bouts per day was associated with 38 to 40 percent lower all-cause and cancer mortality and 48 to 49 percent lower cardiovascular mortality compared with no VILPA.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on The Diary of a CEO, she explains that a shorter eating window can make calorie reduction easier, while a longer overnight fast shifts fuel use toward fatty acids and ketones.”

“In a 12-week randomized crossover trial, a modified ketogenic diet produced sustained physiological ketosis and improved daily function and quality of life compared with a usual diet supplemented with low-fat healthy-eating guidance.”

“Mouse studies of feeding during infection also found different responses across bacterial and viral models, so a minimally processed dietary pattern, regular exercise, and normal hydration and nutrition during illness provide a more useful foundation than one universal food or fasting rule.”
