You are the second to reference Ohsumi, epigenetics and autophagy/fasting as "imitation exercise," as one nutritionist told me. <<<<I'm reasonably knowledgeable not super-intelligent. I did alot of fasting along with consumption of strawberry soup & watercress during my recovery & the rationale behind them>>>> Re the running; an MCL strain during my last marathon ended my career, and after I recovered I had no desire to run any distance longer than 200m. However, one of the orthopedic doctors I talked to after the injury - I think it was a Level II strain, or something like that - he was a retired surgeon in his early-80s who was still running 5 miles 4 days a week, and he did not recommend surgery, but instead advised me to return to weight training with relatively heavy weights, compound movements (pretty much what I was doing prior to devoting myself to running) and educate myself as to the benefits of fasting as therapy. I didn't know it at the time, but the doc had torn an ACL four years before I met him, and he allegedly healed himself following this advice; no surgery. <<<<<the therapeutic benefits of fasting has been known since biblical times & its renewed interest with the publication of Upton Sinclair's, "The Fasting Cure". Corrective surgery is a 50/50 proposition. They wanted to do a laminectomy on me but I held out. I'm glad I sucked it up but it was hell at first>>>>

I get it Moxohol. I know You like all that stuff, nothing wrong with that if that's what You like. Just don't worry Yourself to death about how long You're going to live and what not. Yeah, we're all into health and fitness but don't let it consume You. Do what You enjoy. Honestly most of it is really simple. You're missing my point: It's got nothing to with like or dislike or fretting over lifespan. It's got more to do with ones character. I analyze everything to death in detail because that's my nature. Ask me a simple question & I'll write u war & peace. Sorta like macky. Have at it my man. Whatever makes You Happy.
