tiny, perfect in its hour. — Sam Hamill

The Fasting Mimicking Diet allows the natural process of starvation autophagy, protection, stem cell regeneration to occur. You don’t interfere with the natural process. That’s a key of the Fasting Mimicking Diet. In the case of the ketogenic diet, you are trying to force the system into doing something that it has never evolved to do. It’s very scary and almost guaranteed a failure. Even if it’s a good thing for 1-5 years, eventually the body is going to have problems… When you introduce an environment that the body has never seen before, sooner or later it is not going to be able to function in that environment. — Valter Longo
