‘Fasting and Longevity’ explores the science behind intermittent fasting and its potential to extend lifespan and improve healthspan. It delves into various intermittent fasting protocols, such as time-restricted eating and alternate-day fasting, examining their impact on cellular repair and metabolic health through clinical trials and animal research. Did you know that calorie restriction, a concept related to intermittent fasting, has been observed to extend lifespan in various organisms for nearly a century, highlighting the potential of strategic eating patterns? The book emphasizes how intermittent fasting can activate key cellular pathways, like autophagy, associated with longevity, potentially reducing the risk of age-related diseases. It provides practical guidelines for safely implementing different intermittent fasting schedules while acknowledging the need for more research on long-term effects. The book begins by introducing the fundamental principles of intermittent fasting, explores core biological mechanisms and then delves into specific forms of intermittent fasting, offering customized considerations for individuals. This book stands out by providing a balanced, evidence-based perspective on intermittent fasting, focusing on personalized approaches that consider individual factors. It connects cell biology, nutrition science, and preventative medicine, presenting the information in an accessible style for a broad audience interested in health fitness and life sciences.
