This weird little autoimmune thing that every once in a while will trigger. And I'm like, what the heck is that? And so... I was 144 pounds and like 11, 12 percent. I think it was 11 percent body fat when I did it. And I went on and the person who initially put me on it put me on a starting dose. It was too much. It was way too much. And so that dropped me like I like. And it was funny.

Here's what's weird. I was actually tracking my calories and I didn't change what I was doing or eating by more than 200 calories. But I went down to 138. And so I popped the dose way down and started cycling it. So basically a fifth of the dose once or twice a month, right? And came back up to my normal weight, normal body fat. And so it's one you just have to watch.

But I use the teensiest dose every once in a while. Right. All the autoimmunity stuff at bay because there's good research on that.

Oh, is this like intermittent faster, do you mean? Well, you know, fasting's kind of such a tough word because what's it really mean? It could mean anything from normal eating, like stop eating three hours before bed, eat about an hour or two after waking up in the morning. That's like to me what we should be doing. Get that, you know, 10 to 12 hour window.

It could be eating, compressing that a little bit. And there's some benefits for that. Some of it might be caloric restriction, but some of it's, it's hard to say, like, I don't know when autophagy starts. I don't know how you test for it. I don't know how anybody knows this. I don't, you know, I don't know why we'd all be the same.

It would seem like it would have to be with your metabolic health. But I think there's some benefits to these things. But I also think there's some detriments to it. So that's one that I do not, I don't like is OMAD.

You know, we just, we are complex machines. Like, you know, they are like the VW, remember growing up, everyone who had a VW bug, you could literally go in there with like a bobby pin and fix it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Versus. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

You know, it's just we're complicated and you mess with us a little bit, it throws all of our hormones off, whether it's fasting, keto, any of these types of things can be wonky for us. I'm not a fan of keto for women and less. Now, diets are tools. So, you know, if you've got cancer, fasting and keto would be a different situation, right? So, you know, I'm not talking about that.
