#89 - AMA #11: All things fasting

In this "Ask Me Anything" (AMA) episode, Peter answers a wide range of fasting-specific questions from subscribers. Peter starts by defining the various fasting protocols, details his own personal fasting regimen, explains his revised plan for 2020, and provides a ton of value to anyone interested in fasting. Once again, Bob Kaplan, Peter's head of research, will be asking the questions. If you're not a subscriber and listening on a podcast player, you'll only be able to hear a preview of the AMA.
