Bitesize Biohack: Intermittent Fasting & Autophagy

In this extract from Angela’s interview with Dr Joseph Antoun hear about the most important aspect of fasting, stressing the body and how to optimise your fasting period
Getting into autophagy, as Dr Joseph explains, takes longer than most people think and exercise is an effective tool for getting into autophagy and benefitting from the duality of intermittent fasting, cutting fat and increasing muscle enhancement
  
KEY TAKEAWAYS
When you fast for a long enough period of time there is restructuring and cellular renewal as you  move into autophagy
The most crucial aspect of how fasting works is how you are stressing the body
Fasting increases the growth hormone and the muscle tone is high
Getting into autophagy is determined by the intensity of the crisis, the speed of the crisis and how much reserves the body has to compensate
Autophagy is happening every day at every moment  across the body’s cells 
BEST MOMENTS
‘It doesn’t happen as quickly as many people think
‘Eat protein after fasting  and train the muscle in cycles of rejuvenation and muscle enhancement’
