STOP Intermittent Fasting If You Want to Stay Young : 1409

STOP Intermittent Fasting If You Want to Stay Young : 1409

STOP intermittent fasting if you think it automatically keeps you young. In this episode, you’ll learn why short-term fasting results can mislead long-term aging outcomes, and how duration, frequency, refeeding, and protein intake determine whether fasting supports longevity or quietly accelerates decline.

Host Dave Asprey sits down with Valter Longo, one of the world’s leading longevity researchers with over 30 years of experience studying aging, nutrition, and disease prevention. Dr. Longo is the Director of the Longevity Institute at the University of Southern California’s Leonard Davis School of Gerontology and the Director of the Longevity and Cancer Program at IFOM, the Italian Foundation for Cancer Research Institute of Molecular Oncology in Milan. He is the author of the bestselling book The Longevity Diet and was named one of TIME Magazine’s 50 most influential people in health care for his research on fasting-mimicking diets.


Together, Dave Asprey and Dr. Longo explain why many people focus too heavily on short-term effects and extrapolate them incorrectly across a lifetime. They break down how intermittent fasting differs biologically from multi-day fasting, why five-day fasting cycles trigger deeper cellular changes, and how insulin, IGF-1, mTOR, and growth hormone shape aging, regeneration, and disease risk over time.


The conversation covers protein and amino acid intake, muscle preservation, frailty risk, and the tradeoffs between strength, function, and longevity. They explore ketosis, fasting-mimicking diets, stem cell activation, mitochondrial function, neuroplasticity, and why equilibrium and cycling matter more than constant restriction. Dave and Valter also discuss supplements, nootropics, creatine, carnivore-style eating, metabolism, sleep optimization, and how AI may eventually personalize fasting and nutrition based on individual biology rather than population averages.


You’ll learn:

• Why short-term fasting benefits do not predict long-term longevity

• How fasting duration changes gene expression and cellular regeneration

• The difference between intermittent fasting and multi-day fasting

• How protein and amino acids influence mTOR, IGF-1, and aging

• Why muscle, strength, and longevity must be balanced, not maximized

• When ketosis overlaps with fasting and when it does not

• Why supplements can disrupt biological equilibrium

• How AI could support future personalization in fasting and nutrition

Vitamin C Is Taking The Fight To The Big "C" – Dr. Ron Hunninghake - #379

Vitamin C Is Taking The Fight To The Big "C" – Dr. Ron Hunninghake - #379

Vitamin C is taking the fight to the "Big C." Scientists around the world are beginning to rethink how to fight cancer, and are looking to Vitamin C for help. Somewhere along the line, humans lost the ability to produce Vitamin C, and some scientists see this event as the point when human bodies began to deteriorate and became disease ridden without proper supplementation of Vitamin C from external sources. As ailments like heart disease, fibromyalgia, and cancer have ravaged human bodies, pioneering doctors like Ron Hunninghake from the Riordan Institute have developed new cancer treatment protocols using elevated dosages of Vitamin C with such promising results that big pharma has taken notice.   Featured Desert Farms (Use promo code: Bulletproof20) Teeter Riordan Clinic Resources Linus Pauling Orthomolecular Medicine Recnac Tripping Over the Truth by Travis Christofferson The Healing Factor by Irwin Stone (Free online edition) The Stretch Marks Factor Book Doug Kaufmann Myers' Cocktail Bulletproof Bulletproof Collagen Products Bulletproof Glutathione Force Dr. Stephanie Seneff: Glyphosate Toxicity, Lower Cholesterol Naturally & Get Off Statins – #238 Steve Fowkes: Smart Drugs & The Designer Brain See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Vegetable Oil - The Silent Killer w/ Dr. Cate Shanahan #376

Vegetable Oil - The Silent Killer w/ Dr. Cate Shanahan #376

What is so destructive to the human body that Dave would rather smoke a cigarette than eat? Vegetable oil. This kitchen staple found in almost every single home in the United States is slowly destroying the bodies of the American people on the cellular level. On this episode of Bulletproof Dave welcomes Los Angeles Lakers nutritionist Dr. Cate Shanahan onto the podcast to talk about the benefits of healthy animal-based fats and the destructive effects unleashed on the human body from their toxic cousins, vegetable oils. Effects such as cellular degradation and mutation, destruction of the elasticity of skin, brain trauma, and even cellulite.
