Metabolic Autophagy is a collection of guidelines about the principles of the anabolic-catabolic cycles in regards to nutrition and exercise.  The process of autophagy entails your healthy cells devouring the old, worn-out, weak ones and converting them back into energy. It’s literally your body eating itself and using that to maintain homeostasis. There are many longevity-boosting benefits to this as illustrated in virtually all other species.  This episode of the Body Mind Empowerment Podcast is going to be the book launch of my new book Metabolic Autophagy.  Get My New Book Metabolic Autophagy on Amazon!

Even just a few decades ago people thought that the human brain doesn't change after a certain life stage - that you're pre-determined to be a certain way for the rest of your life.

They say that eating fewer calories may potentially make you live longer. Unfortunately, it can also predispose you to diabetes, obesity, and insulin resistance, if you end up causing metabolic damage. One of the best ways of combatting the ailments of modern living, such as sedentarism, overeating, losing strength and bone density is to do resistance training. Building muscle and strength make you burn more calories when doing nothing and it also protects against many of the other age-related diseases. It's incredibly important for longevity. Welcome to the Body Mind Empowerment Podcast. I'm you host Siim Land and our guest today is Sal di Stefano. Sal's been a personal trainer for over 20 years and now he's one of the hosts of the Mind Pump Podcast that talks about raw fitness truths and misconceptions.

Could it be that intermittent fasting is the missing piece of your health?  Of course, the foundation of health and wellness is proper nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management, but I'd say that fasting tends to be somewhat neglected in that regard. In this episode of the Body Mind Empowerment Podcast, I'm going to replay my interview on the Optimal Performance Podcast with Sean McCormick. It's a pretty good talk and I believe a lot of people can get some value from it.
