What if you could enjoy all the powerful health benefits of fasting without actually going hungry? Dr. Chris Rhodes, a biochemist with a PhD from UC Davis, has discovered a revolutionary approach that might make this possible.

During this fascinating conversation, Dr. Rhodes explains how fasting triggers a remarkable survival response in our cells. After about 24 hours without food, our bodies deplete glycogen stores and enter "true fasting metabolism," activating anti-inflammatory pathways, cellular cleanup mechanisms, and metabolic efficiency programs that can extend lifespan in virtually every organism studied.

The breakthrough came when Dr. Rhodes identified four specific metabolites that appear in human blood during a 36-hour fast. When combined and given to C. elegans worms, these compounds extended their lifespan by a staggering 96% - essentially doubling how long they lived.

This led to the creation of Mimio Health, a company developing supplements that recreate the molecular environment of fasting. Clinical studies show these supplements can maintain an anti-inflammatory state and cardioprotective benefits even while eating regular meals. Even more remarkably, eight weeks of supplementation reduced biological age by 2.5 years, increased free testosterone by 50%, and improved cholesterol profiles and glucose regulation. I am an advisor to Mimio Health, but I only work with companies that are based on solid science with a strong potential to help humanity.

Throughout our conversation, Dr. Rhodes offers thought-provoking insights about how modern eating patterns create chronic inflammation and how our bodies evolved with natural fasting cycles. He argues that constant eating without fasting windows may actually be the unnatural state for human metabolism - not the other way around.

Whether you're interested in longevity, metabolic health, or simply understanding how our bodies respond to food, this episode offers a compelling look at cutting-edge nutritional biochemistry that could change how we approach health optimization. Ready to discover how your body might already possess the blueprint for extraordinary health and longevity? Listen now and learn how to activate it.
