ENCORE: The Benefits—and Limitations—of Intermittent Fasting, Part 1

In recognition of my collaboration on a review article, “Recommending Intermittent Fasting,” in the “Natural Medicine Journal” with its publisher, Karolyn Gazella, I invited her on to share our research on the benefits—and limitations—of intermittent fasting, and specifically time restricted feeding (TRF). Reducing your eating window to just 8 or 10 hours a day may aid weight loss, but it does so much more: TRF has been demonstrated to reboot metabolism, provide some of the benefits of a keto diet, promote autophagy and cellular resilience, with disease-fighting and anti-aging potential. We discuss its application to metabolic syndrome and diabetes, cognitive enhancement, as an adjunct to cancer therapy, for cardiovascular prevention, as well as for inflammatory disorders. How best to implement TRF; when TRF might not be suitable; why exercise + TRF might be synergistic. Click HERE for part 2.

Finally a reason to switch your omega-3!

You’ve heard me talk for years about the importance of including fish oil in your supplement regimen—but not all omega-3s are created equal. 

I’m excited to share that I’ve made the switch to a formulation that tops all the rest: Big Bold Health’s Omega-3 Rejuvenate is a premium blend of oils from wild-caught Alaskan cod and sockeye salmon. 

Using a low heat extraction technique to extract the pure amber oil that contains all-natural and abundant full-spectrum omega-3s, Omega-3 Rejuvenate preserves the natural goodness of the fish, so you get maximum benefits in every soft gel. 

Right now, you can save 20% on your order with code HOFFMAN20.
