Through decades of research, he developed the FMD as a clinically tested, five-day protocol designed to simulate the biological benefits of water-only fasting, such as improved metabolism, cellular repair, and the activation of stem cells, while minimizing the risks and discomforts typically associated with a strict fast.\nLongo contrasts water-only fasting with the FMD, emphasizing that water-only approaches can be difficult to follow and potentially unsafe without professional supervision, especially for individuals on certain medications or with specific health conditions. With carefully selected, plant-focused ingredients and precisely calibrated nutrient levels, the FMD helps users transition into a “fat-burning” mode while still supplying key nutrients. He also highlights the importance of a balanced, pescetarian-based “Longevity Diet,” combined with moderate exercise and limited eating windows (about 12 hours daily) to support long-term health. Whether someone’s goal is to prevent diabetes, reduce cancer risks, or simply maintain vitality, Dr.Longo believes that nourishing the body with the right foods and mindful fasting holds significant promise for extending both lifespan and healthspan.\n#EsraÇavuşoğlu #AyıkKafa #ElevatingLifeEvolvingHealth #Longevilab #profvalterlongo #longevitydiet #fastingmimickingdiet \n \nProf. Valter Longo:\nWebsite:\nhttps://valterlongo.com/biography/  \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/prof_valterlongo/ \n00:00-2:50 Dr. Longo’s early interest in aging.
