certifiable or, at the very least, after your money. But if there a scientifically proven strategy to do so, would you believe it then? This biohack, called Calorie Restriction (CR), has been shown to extend the life span in primates and rodent species reliably over the past 20 years of research. The best news is, there is very good reason to believe that these same benefits can be gained in the human life span as well.

We must be aware of the real concept of what precisely we have to take per day for the purpose of losing the weight. We've often…

regimen was as effective as simple calorie restriction in decreasing fasting insulin and glucose concentration; it also reduced total plasma cholesterol and triglyceride level.24 A Modified fasting regimen generally allows for the consumption of 20-25% energy needs for 2 non-consecutive days during the week, while the rest of the week is one’s typical regimen of energy intake.24 Varady and colleagues have investigated the effects of modified fasting and found this way of IF results in decreased…

Even though I was under that number there is…
