Fasting For Resilience & Cancer Prevention
What if the most powerful resilience practice costs nothing, fits any schedule, and turns your own cells into a repair squad?
In today's episode we dive into fasting as a practical, evidence-informed way to boost resilience, support treatment, and create a body environment where cancer struggles to thrive.
I share step-by-step strategies to help you start safely, build metabolic flexibility, and time longer fasts for deeper benefits.
Here's some of what we're covering:
• why fasting acts as a hormetic stress for longevity and resilience
• metabolic shifts that lower insulin, glucose, inflammation, and IGF-1
• autophagy and cellular cleanup that supports detox and repair
• immune regeneration and stronger white blood cell production
• differential stress resistance to protect healthy cells during treatment
• practical fasting tiers from 13 hours to 72 hours and beyond
There are really good reasons why fasting is my #1 tool to support cancer prevention and why I encourage everyone to give it a try.
