Humans only get these benefits when we make sure our diet is nutrient rich. So fasting, then eating potato crisps and cake is not going to work for healthy longevity. Unless you are a lab rat.

The other benefits only arrive when you focus on what you eat when your not fasting. Stay tuned to find out what the options are for that…
