Fasting isn’t a modern “hack”, it’s how the human body was designed to function.
Periods without food activate deep repair systems that constant eating suppresses.
During fasting:
• Autophagy is triggered - the body clears damaged cells and proteins.
• Insulin sensitivity improves - lowering the risk of metabolic disease.
• Growth hormone rises - supporting repair and fat metabolism.
• Inflammation decreases - giving the immune system space to reset.
Ancient cultures didn’t know the words “mTOR” or “autophagy,” but they lived in alignment with these rhythms naturally. Science is only now catching up to explain why fasting sustained human health for millennia.
Fasting isn’t about self-denial. It’s about allowing the body to operate as it was designed… cycling between nourishment and renewal.
