In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Valter Longo, one of the world’s leading researchers in longevity and cancer science, to uncover the groundbreaking research behind fasting and fasting mimicking diets. He has spent decades researching aging, fasting, cancer prevention, and longevity. His work on fasting mimicking diets is now being implemented in hospitals and clinics around the world. In the episode, we’re going to dive deep into how strategic nutrition can influence cellular repair, metabolic health, inflammation, and even cancer outcomes. You’re also going to discover how fasting impacts cancer cells differently than healthy cells, why metabolic flexibility matters for longevity, and how modern lifestyles are accelerating chronic disease. Dr. Longo also breaks down the connection between nutrition and cancer prevention, the role of protein intake in aging, and practical ways to improve your health span while reducing your risk of disease. In this episode you'll discover: Introduction to fasting mimicking diets and their impact on cancer survivability. (00:00) How green tea and matcha support autophagy and metabolic health.
