Jason Fung thinks that food manufacturers won't ever back fasting, because there is nothing they can sell you.
Boy, has he underestimated them!

Hi Subtle_badger isn't a Fasting bar a contradiction in terms?
Its bang on trend being Gluten free GM free and plant based but fasting...at least it contains nuts.
Just looked them up and went on the Facebook page for the reviews……. scary. I’m sure the fundamentals of fasting means different things to different people.
I think it's based on the Fasting Mimicking Diet, which is rather well regarded by some people. Valter Longi did a study of how much people could eat and still have benefits of fasting like reduced mTOR and insulin, and a similar evidence of autophagy.
That's a whole different very expensive thing, around £200 for 5 days worth of cuppasoup and handfuls of olives. The protocol is 5 days/month for 3 months, so that's £600 pounds.
As someone pointed out, it might not be as technical as it seems. It's a VLCD, and that is known to lead to autophagy etc.
Dr Berg is not a fan
You can search for this if you are interested; there's a ton of info on YouTube and elsewhere.
Of course, this isn't even that. It's just a bar that you can pretend isn't food.
Interesting post!
Thank you SB 😊
The label made me chuckle, "allows you to fast with food"
Isn't fasting, not eating food lol
And, annoyingly this trademarked 'saying' is going to make them a tonne of money 🤔🙄😬
That's my moan for the morning!
Take care,

Hey, maybe someone could make money selling timers! ;o)
