Thanks John! I just listened to a Newt Gingrich podcast where he interviewed 2 scientists studying aging. Both said that intermittent fasting has benefits in slowing the aging process -- especially 16 hours between meals.
Thanks, John! I've found that with a low-carb diet over time I have gotten to one meal a day, or sometimes two, and once in a while three. When you're fat-adapted you don't get the carb cravings. Sometimes I just get distracted and forget to eat. I know that sounds kind of crazy, but it's reality. Empty is a WAY different feeling than hungry, and I really don't get hungry much any more.
