This is my 19th week since I began intermittent fasting. That means I have done it for over 4 months now. I started with the 16/8 method, where I fast 16 hours a day, but recently, especially since the 4th month, I have been fasting about 17 hours a day. This is because people like Dr. Mindy Pelz say that it is more effective if you fast for 17 hours.
I uploaded a new video on Hare and Ke Intermittent Fasting. I am talking about my protein cycling.
I uploaded a new video on Hare and Ke Intermittent Fasting. This time it is about hormesis and how a cycle of pain and recovery is crucial for hormesis to work.
I uploaded a video on Hare and Ke Intermittent Fasting; autophagy and mTOR cycling.
I am so excited to announce that I have updated The Ikigai Diet book on my 333rd post.
Yes, this is the 333rd post since I began this blog.
As you know I started doing intermittent fasting in February, and have incorporated autophagy in the Ikigai Diet since then. Therefore I decided to update the book to add that element.
I wanted to jump to a pasta dish that had some beans on, but I was careful enough to start from my usual fast-breaking dish.
I had a special natto dish. It is steamed vegetables with kimchi and natto. It has ginger, garlic, carrots, onions, broccoli, Shimeji mushroom, burdock, daikon leaves, and hijiki seaweed. I mixed them with natto and kimchi, and added olive oil, hemp seeds, and soy sauce.
It has been three months since I began this intermittent fasting and I have kind of figured out the optimal way of doing it.
I decided to call it Hare and Ke Intermittent Fasting.
Now that I have completed the first three months of my intermittent fasting, I began a new phase. I started having only vegetables for lunch on Wednesday.
