If you have been rethinking restrictive dietary strategies (such as restricting the time you eat with intermittent fasting, restricting calories, and restricting macronutrients like with carbohydrates or ketogenic diets) or wondering why I have been rethinking restrictive diets in recent times, this is the episode for you.

As you’ll hear, in 2022 I began a big experiment and started swapping out my typical morning fasting period, which I had been adhering to for at least a dozen years, for something entirely different, since the idea that fasting = metabolic benefits is now being reconsidered among the healthy, active, fit population. Tune in to this breather episode to learn why my new mantra is perform, recover, perform, recover, and why I deliberately ceased my fasting practice and now start my day with a giant bowl of fruit and a high-protein, energy dense smoothie instead.
