Busting Fasting Myths with Dave Asprey
Join JJ as she chats with one of her very best buddies, founder of Bulletproof Coffee and fasting expert Dave Asprey. Dave will take you on his trial-and-error journey of weight loss. Once hitting 300 pounds, having arthritis, high risk of heart attack and stroke, cognitive dysfunction, prediabetes, and chronic fatigue syndrome - all by the age of 30 - Dave was desperate for change. Trying everything from daily gym workouts to the most stripped down diets he could imagine, nothing was working for him. Dave found that by simply doing one thing less, he was able to drop the pounds easily; eating less.
Fasting helped Dave start dropping fat while maintaining energy levels, getting good sleep, feeling more excited about life, and actually lowering his biological age. Dave and JJ discuss the important signs for both women and men that your fasting cycle might need a change. It’s not a one-size-fits-all system, but once you can get your personal schedule figured out, you will start to reap the benefits of a fasting diet.
Plus, you’ll learn the ways to listen to your body! Some days you just need to rest, other days you need to shake up your schedule a bit. All without self-judgement. Your body knows what it needs, and it’s trying to tell you, you just need to train yourself to hear it!
