    335: Longevity and the Fasting Mimicking Diet with Dr. Valter Longo

    Can the fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) be a sustainable lifestyle choice for promoting healthier habits, and what scientific evidence supports its regenerative effects on the body?   In this episode of I AM HUMAN, I interview Dr. Valter Longo on his research in aging and longevity. He defines the longevity diet, why he recommends a low protein intake, and whether plant protein is as harmful as animal protein. He also describes the fasting-mimicking diet and its benefits.  Discover how a musician turned biochemist revolutionized the way we approach aging, introducing the fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) as a groundbreaking strategy for enhancing lifespan and combating chronic diseases. This episode is a deep dive into the science behind this innovative diet, shedding light on its ability to reduce biological age, decrease systemic inflammation, and improve crucial health markers such as cholesterol and IGF-1. Dr. Longo challenges conventional notions of protein intake, especially from animal sources, and provides a comprehensive framework for healthy aging tailored to individual needs. Hear about the transformative potential of the FMD, with its regenerative effects and practical approach that makes it accessible to everyone, even those new to fasting.   Learn how FMD offers a safer, more sustainable alternative to traditional fasting, the challenges and triumphs of implementing FMD in clinical trials, and its role in disease prevention and management. With insights into Dr. Longo's personal dietary practices and his vision for the future of nutrition, this episode offers a wealth of information for anyone interested in enhancing their quality and length of life through informed dietary choices.  Dr. Valter Longo is a renowned expert in longevity and age-related diseases, recognized for his groundbreaking research on fasting and its effects on lifespan. His team notably extended the lifespan of a simple organism tenfold and identified key genetic mutations in humans linked to protection against cancer and cognitive decline. He developed the fasting-mimicking diet, leading to over 30 clinical trials demonstrating its potential in reducing biological age and aiding cancer patients. As a Professor at USC’s Longevity Institute, he authored the bestselling book "The Longevity Diet" and was named one of TIME magazine's 50 most influential people in healthcare in 2018. Additionally, he founded non-profit organizations aimed at promoting healthy longevity.  Discussion points:  (00:00) Guest intro - Dr. Valter Longo and his pioneering work on longevity (08:30) Insights from historical diets like Mediterranean and Okinawan  (08:30) Dr. Longo discusses the fasting-mimicking diet's benefits on health   (12:39) Keeping protein low- counterintuitive but accurate, animal vs. plant protein, protein intake recommendations (18:45) The potential of FMD for regeneration and disease prevention  (26:00) Using fasting as a way to identify food sensitivities, and as a preventative measure (30:46) Challenges of water-only fasting compared to FMD are examined   (33:20) How the FMD works, what foods and when? (36:00) Dr. Longo's personal diet and views on time-restricted eating (39:00) Closing questions, what we wish people knew Please subscribe, and reach out to us with your comments, questions, and feedback  Resources:  Book: The Longevity Diet by Dr. Valter Longo Dr. Valter Longo IG ProLon Fasting Mimicking Diet    Disclaimer: The information on this podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.
