About this listen

Will Winston discusses the primal benefits of fasting, emphasizing its role in metabolic flexibility, weight loss, gut health, and autophagy.

Autophagy, the body's cellular cleanup process, is activated during fasting, promoting health and longevity. Guests Cameron Trickey and Joshua Cole share their experiences with fasting, noting its impact on mental clarity, focus, and overall well-being. The discussion underscores fasting as a natural, primal practice essential for modern health.
