@Likewise Great advice ! I am down that road too: low carb chocoholic (now moving on to cocoa nibs) with 6 hours of feed window 5 days a week.

I am 58 years old and insulin resistant. The above nutritional changes plus 40 min of strenght/cardio training every other day, have given me a new lease on life.

My own two bits: walnuts, pecanas, macadamias and avocado provide a lot of healty fats and Omega3/6 balance. When taken at the end of the feeding window, they make the 18 hr fast a piece of... err meatpie 🙄 !

I also make my own cannabinoid extracts. Non psychotropic ones such as cannabinol CBN (main CB2 receptor agonist) and CBD from flower (no hemp) help regulate blood sugar, stabilize mood and protect my liver, spleen colon and pancreas.

Gladly surprised to find your testimony as health does not seem to be a priority for mastodon people...

Diagram depicting which human organs relate to which endocannabinoid receptors. Lungs, brain, vascular system, reproductive organs and muscle behaviour are regulated by CB1 receptors ( anandamide and THC). Colon, spleen and immune system are regulated by CB2 receptors (2-AG and CBN). Bones, pancreas and liver are regulated by both type of receptors.

Old male mice who were subjected to 6 months of a 24-hour-on, 24-hour-off intermittent fasting regime showed increased mating behavior, evidently as a result of decrease in the age-related increase of serotonin levels in the brain.

A rat study on the effects of 4-hour time-restricted feeding and 60% calorie restriction on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (FLD) found that both alleviated FLD and reduced body weight. Time-restricted feeding was slightly more effective than caloric restriction (and is presumed to be an easier regime for people to follow).

BioMed CentralEffect of time-restricted feeding and caloric restriction in metabolic associated fatty liver disease in male rats - Nutrition & MetabolismBackground The prevalence of metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is high. However, there are few studies on the effects of time-restricted feeding (TRF) and caloric restriction (CR) in MAFLD. Objectives To investigate the efficacy and mechanism of 4 h TRF and 60% CR in MAFLD. Methods Twelve male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly assigned to the Normal group (normal diet, 10 kcal% fat), while the remaining 38 rats were assigned to the MAFLD group (high-fat diet, 60 kcal% fat). 10 weeks later, the MAFLD group was randomly divided into the 4 h TRF, 60% CR, 4 h TRF + 60% CR, and Model groups; all rats were then given normal diet. After 4 weeks, weight, blood lipid, and other indicators were detected. Results After the high-fat diet was discontinued, the liver lipid levels in the rat with MAFLD significantly reduced, while the body weight was not significantly changed. The rats in the Model group were heavier than those in the other four groups (p < 0.01). The triglyceride levels were higher in the TRF + CR group compared with the Model group (p < 0.01). Compared with the Model group, 110 metabolites were decreased in the TRF + CR group, and 83 metabolites were elevated in liver. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes revealed that the mechanism involved the proliferator–activated receptor alpha signaling pathway, metabolic pathway, and so on. We observed differences in silent information regulator transcript 1 (SIRT1) mRNA levels in all five groups (p = 0.003). Conclusions 4 h TRF and 60% CR significantly reduced body weight and liver lipid in rats with MAFLD. 4 h TRF can improve MAFLD, and there is no need to excessively restrict food intake.

"The intermittent fasting trend MAY pose risks to your heart

Intermittent fasting — when people only eat at certain times of day — has exploded in popularity in recent years. But now a surprising new study suggests that there MIGHT be reason to be cautious: It found that some intermittent fasters were more likely to die of heart disease.
Zhong said that he and his colleagues .. were surprised by their findings."

Washington Post · The intermittent fasting trend may pose risks to your heartA large study found that eating all your meals within an 8 hour time frame -- a popular form of intermittent fasting -- nearly doubled heart disease deaths.

Week 218 of fasting and striking from working and shopping once a week for the climate. Despite this movement getting started thanks to Fridays for Future, the 'Fridays' on my sign is no longer visible as I have distanced myself from that organisation due to their recent antisemitic posts that celebrate violence. This movement can only be successful if it is peaceful.

However, I will not give up on the climate and environment which is a cause for all of us and every future generation. There is a place in the climate movement for Jewish activists and activists from every culture and background. We are united in the critical need to preserve the health and well-being of our environment, of the human species, and of all species, from the simplest to most complex of organisms. There will never be a reason to give up, no matter what forces may attempt to divide us. Unity is necessary for survival.
