Fasting-mimicking diet reduces biological age and disease risk
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10879164/ Based on a validated measure of biological age predictive of morbidity and mortality, 3 FMD cycles were associated with a decrease of 2.5 years in median biological age, independent of weight loss. Nearly identical findings resulted from a second clinical study (NCT04150159). Together these results provide initial support for beneficial effects of the FMD…
Autophagy & Cellular Cleanup
What is Autophagy? Autophagy = your body’s self-cleaning process that removes damaged cells & proteins. It declines with age, but you can trigger it with: ⏳ Fasting – 24-48 hours maximally boosts autophagy. Even time-restricted eating (16:8) helps.🏋️♂️ Exercise – High-intensity & endurance training ramp up autophagy in muscles & the brain.🦠 Polyphenols & Compounds:…

existing evidence suggests that glycine prolongs life by mimicking methionine restriction and activating autophagy.
