Episode notes
Metabolic Autophagy
- Metabolism encompasses energy production, growth, and repair.
- Autophagy is central to metabolic processes, impacting lifespan and various health aspects.
Intermittent Fasting and Evolution
- Intermittent fasting aligns with human evolution, as hunter-gatherers often went without food.
- Caloric restriction and intermittent fasting activate longevity pathways, including autophagy, promoting lifespan extension.
Cycling Metabolic States
- Cycle between catabolic and anabolic states for optimal metabolic function.
- Fasting promotes catabolism (AMPK activation, mTOR suppression), while eating promotes anabolism (mTOR activation, AMPK suppression).
