Fasting Insights

Prolonged fasting, particularly between 11 to 13 hours, initiates rejuvenative processes like autophagy, which recycles worn-out proteins. Fat burning peaks around 12 to 24 hours of fasting, while extended fasting can help the body excrete excess sodium, potentially lowering blood pressure. Understanding these mechanisms can enhance the benefits of time-restricted eating.
