Cream (autophagy) fast

Fasting is good for you - and helps you lose weight, reverse insulin resistance, etc.

But I do not need to lose weight - and autophagy is another benefit of fasting. (You re-cycle damaged cells, amino acids, viruses, and rubbish - and rebuild a new, younger self afterwards.)

Dr Mindy says, to get into autophagy, we need to keep our protein intake below 20gm per day, so I am eating:

300ml of cream - 4.5gm protein, 1,345kcal

and 1/7 kg yoghurt - 7.5gm protein, 57 kcal

per day.

Yesterday I had an avocado, which, apparently has 4gm of protein.

...so that was 16gm of protein yesterday.

...and, eating 1,400 kcal a day, I am not likely to lose much weight.

Is cream a good (short term) diet?

When I am not fasting, I eat 600ml of cream a week - it is cheap, low carb, gluten free, keto, paleo etc.

Not what you're looking for?
