Description
"New Research Says Fasting Beats Cutting Calories" features Dave Asprey and Leonie Heilbronn (PhD) discussing different forms of fasting, including intermittent fasting, time-restricted eating, and calorie restriction. Heilbronn compares these methods, outlining their benefits and drawbacks. She explains how time-restricted eating allows individuals to maintain their diet while achieving positive effects but cautions against adopting unhealthy behaviors under time pressure. The discussion provides valuable insights into optimizing fasting strategies for better health outcomes.
