Why 16 Hours Isn't Enough for True Fasting Benefits, with Dr. Chris Rhodes

What you know about fasting might be wrong! Or, at least, inaccurate. You might believe a 16-hour fast unlocks those deep, cellular-level benefits. As it turns out, that's not actually how your body works. That layer of metabolic magic happens in longer fasts, but most people never get there. However, there's a way to get many of the benefits without being hungry! In this episode, Dr. Chris Rhodes, a nutritional biochemist known for his research into fasting, nutrition, and longevity, unpacks why the typical 16-hour fast doesn't quite reach the deeper benefits like autophagy or a metabolic reset, and how to achieve it with less effort.  Listen now and start fasting towards health!
