Time Restricted Eating: So if you're not willing to fast yourself for
So if you're not willing to fast yourself for five days, is there any positive impact on your body from fasting more rapidly because you're talking about how it's, it transforms your body in five days, most people listening are probably not going to fast for five days, but obviously there's a lot of
"So if you're not willing to fast yourself for five days, is there any positive impact on your body from fasting more rapidly because you're talking about how it's, it transforms your body in five days, most people listening are probably not going to fast for five days, but obviously there's a lot of interest in intermittent fasting or all these other sort of things, is there any impact on your body from shorter periods of fasting? Yeah,"
And so I think that's a good safe option to the 16 hours
And I think fasting, because it is so powerful, is in the same category, but the 12 hours I've never seen any negative studies, epidemiological or otherwise.
"And I think fasting, because it is so powerful, is in the same category, but the 12 hours I've never seen any negative studies, epidemiological or otherwise. So I would say that that's a very good recommendation, it seems to be working for aging, it seems to be working for metabolic issues, not as well as the 16 hours, but well. And so I think that's a good safe option to the 16 hours."
So they get closer to the 12
You told them to go 10 hours, but did it because in the studies of Sachin Panda, he tells them 10 hours, but then it's about 11, right? Yes, we did and a third did it quite sort of religiously and there was this middle group that actually went back and probably managed 12 hours most of the time, but

Yes, we did and a third did it quite sort of religiously and there was this middle group that actually went back and probably managed 12 hours most of the time, but they didn't seem to get quite the same benefits."
By the end of it, they saw five days per month
We ask, and the University of Lydin trial with 100 patients actually looked at lifestyle, and saw no difference other than a little bit increasing exercise towards the end of the 12 fast did mimicking diet cycle.
"We ask, and the University of Lydin trial with 100 patients actually looked at lifestyle, and saw no difference other than a little bit increasing exercise towards the end of the 12 fast did mimicking diet cycle. So they did monthly, so these diabetics with doing fast did mimicking that once a month for 12 months. By the end of it, they saw five days per month. Five days per month."
