Hello! I've read autophagy can be life-changing; positively affecting the slowing (reversing or removing) cancer cells and neurodegenerative diseases (e.g. Alzheimers), and lowering inflammation throughout the body. (And, of course, the significant effects on weight and autoimmune disorders.) If this is true, how do we safely get stay in autophagy and how do we effectively exit? I've been practicing OMAD for over a year and occasionally do extended fasts (up to 80 hours). During long fasting times, I monitor my blood glucose and ketone levels and take electrolytes as needed. IRS (insulin resistance syndrome, about as welcome as the other IRS) is an issue I want to avoid. While I have read books/articles and watched videos on this subject, there is a significant lack of understandable and comprehensive information for the public concerning FASTING: How to, Who should (or should not), How long to, When to, General pros/cons. Autophagy is such an amazing topic (it's funny watching people's faces when you explain what 'autophagy is!), I'd suggest a podcast episode to cover it...or at least I hope you'll be able to give a detailed answer. Thank you for your consideration.
What about a full episode especially for night workers? It will cover supplements to avoid free radicals (NAD, NAC, resveratrol, SAME), minerals and vitamins (which one of them could be more required for the stress of nights, and those the body will have more consumption), hormones use to supply (like using GH to have the benefits, once this is diminished in night workers), and tools for life as you already have been taking about like exposure to light. Let´s say a worker starts to work at 7 pm and gets out at 7 am. Some of them can have little naps at their job. So, what would be the best times for that. Hope this can be covered in the video because it´s a public health matter. Please, include time to do workouts. Thanks a bunch!
I’ve never been super consistent when lifting weights and every time I start again I notice after a couple of weeks I’m generally meaner. I’m more on edge/anxious and angry. I’m generally an anxious person, but not an angry person at all. I’m wondering what’s happening here and if I should stop lifting and find other exercises or if this will go away with time.
