Dave is a biohacking expert and, once weighing over 300 lbs, transformed his health and the lives of millions of people through fasting and the Bulletproof Diet. Dave will discuss the power of fasting and what it can do for the body, including its benefits for autophagy, prevention and healing of chronic disease, weight loss, and more. We will also discuss how to start fasting and different fasting lengths that might be appropriate for beginners. If you are new to fasting, starting with a 12-hour fast produces significant weight loss benefits, and Dave will also describe more advanced types of fasting. Dave also discussed common mistakes people make when fasting, his thoughts on OMAD, one meal a day, and gender differences in fasting between men and women. We also discussed the role of bulletproof coffee in extending a fast and making fasting, intermittent fasting, or prolonged fasting easier for maximum healing and autophagy benefits.
