Dr. Jason Fung reveals why fasting is one of the most powerful tools for weight loss, diabetes reversal, and longevity. He explains how it lowers insulin, activates autophagy, and protects muscle strength—while also reducing cancer risk. He also shares why fasting mimicking diets may provide equal or greater benefits than water-only fasts and how lifestyle choices like diet, exercise, community, and purpose build true longevity.
