INSIGHT

Two Metabolisms

  • Your body uses two metabolisms: a sugar-burning one when you eat and a fat-burning one when you don't.
  • Fasting activates the fat-burning metabolism, producing ketones that fuel and repair the brain, improving mental clarity.
INSIGHT

Breakfast Myth

  • The "Breakfast is the most important meal" tagline originated from a Kellogg's Corn Flakes campaign in the 1970s.
  • Our primal ancestors followed a feast-famine cycle, eating when food was available and fasting when it wasn't.
ADVICE

Fasting Types

  • Try intermittent fasting (12-16 hours) for weight loss and mental clarity.
  • Experiment with autophagy fasting (17-72 hours) to balance sex hormones and prevent illness.
