Such a simple concept yet so much to unpack... so let's talk about it. Topics discussed on this episode:

-Intermittent fasting - what it is + different protocols

-Benefits of fasting we've seen in research

-Discussing the 'why' and underlying reasons for these health benefits

-Potential risks and populations that I wouldn't recommend it to

-Other claims around autophagy, weight loss, improved health markers etc.

+ so much more in-between.
