Autophagy (and fasting).

[FantasyIreland]

I always add honey to my green Tea, would that be allowed when fasting?

Honey contains sugars which are obviously carbs so a true fast it is not.If that is all you are consuming during your period of fast,then I would say the effects will be negligible.

It's all about the telomeres

In surprising reversal, scientists find a cellular process that stops cancer before it starts

Scientists studying the relationship of telomeres to cancer made a surprising discovery: a cellular recycling process called autophagy -- generally thought of as a survival mechanism -- actually promotes the death of cells, thereby preventing cancer initiation.

If youre on eating twice a day.. say about 11am to take advantage of extending the sleeping fast...then ensure that the 11am grub is wet type food..grapes, yoghurt, berries, grapefruit. You want your metabolism woken to spit out yesterdays intake...else you are food stacking.

Forget half 7 feeds, sack it dont let anything dictate..sort out sleep/restoration till youre hitting its third stage...that will sort tiredness and then 5 straight days with nish nosh to eat will be well doable.

I may have misread but wouldn't that mean the first of two meals was only fruit based (I have a snack at 11 - tea, apple & banana then lunch at perhaps 1pm - usually a chicken and vegetable soup with a bit of bread. I'll then have my tea either at 5:30 (if gym class at 8) or 7:30 if I do a gym session around 5:30).

I don't think I could survive on just two meals if one is fruit based - I do a fair work out every day so could do with adding more protein?

Not entirely sure what you mean in the second paragraph? Third stage?
Should also add I'm looking into gut health a little too. I've added (tentatively) Kefir milk to my diet - just as a mid afternoon snack with blueberries at the moment.

When you say you dont think you could survive on fruit only....it's only a think ( your genes are listening to your thoughts) . Set yourself up to win, reframing the lot by binning any half 7 nosh and the reality is you could highly likely do a 48 hr fast this week...

Youre putting a lot of hurdles in your own road..whether youre fully restored everyday is the common denominator to your schedules....if you find the social side of a gym more important than 3rd stage sleep then you'll find yourself at just about the point of your recent posts.

It's my first day so appreciate any advise.
If at 12 I was to eat a banana and a protein shake, would that be considered wet food?
If i then had blueberries, an apple and a tangerine with Kefir milk. Followed by a meal at 17:30 of steak, spring onions, sauerkraut and some asparagus and mushrooms. Does that sound OK, something like that?

 

[Fat Chance]

Break-fast is about dropping the toxins from the day before ( forget proteins)....so food that fascilitates that is goer..bananas according to our culture will be binding ..though fully ripe and theyre fine.
Forget all cereals and the bum steer egg bacon breakfasts...building foods are for the afternoon session ( if you must) .

Watermelon and dandelion/burdoch are your friend.

I am back on keto and fasting between three pm till nine thirty ish next morning , keto is filling so i never feel hungry , nine pounds down in about three weeks , really suits me , getting off junk onto it takes a week but then easy to do , eat what fills you up then fasting is easier

Will I not starve if I only eat watermelon? Or the idea is to eat that then wait an hour or so for next food? That next meal should be fruit again and then protein and my steak with vegetables for dinner?
I’m actually very surprised, I don’t feel starving as I’ve been drinking loads of water

 

[Fat Chance]

You wont starve mate...youve a food store around your belly button called fat...to get the key you go 20+ hrs without food.

If you start eating building foods pre having a dump your stacking your foods...middle aged spread.

Once youve dumped your toxins you can have your tea whenever you want ( it was only set at factory chucking out time for necessity) and then decide how you feel about skidding through the rest of the day/night without eating to repeat the move the following day.
