My first guest on The John Vincent Podcast is Dr Ash Kapoor. 

We talk about fasting – why you might want to try it, and what to expect when you do.

Dr. Ash Kapoor is a practicing clinician and a scientist with a deep curiosity about the human body, root cause analysis and a determination to understand what is happening at a cellular level.

Because Ash is going to be a regular here, we began with Ash’s view of the state of modern medicine, how you can become the owner of your own health, and how Ash’s career in medicine led to his fascination with regenerative medicine.

What will you learn from this episode?

• Dr Kapoor’s medical and personal background, his personal relationship to fasting, and his experiences training GPs within the NHS, and his subsequent research into regenerative medicine
• What fasting is, and when it might be beneficial to your body and mind.
• Both the biological and psychological process of fasting. 
• Some surprising effects of fasting on your lifestyle and longevity. 
• The ways to fast safely.
• A history of fasting in different cultures.
• The difference between fasting and starvation
• John’s personal experience of fasting under the guidance of Dr Ash, and his biomarkers before and after. 
• Insight into how people with ADHD metabolise glucose differently. 

At LEON, I wanted to provide people with delicious food that also allowed them to be healthy.

Now, Dr Kapoor has given me an additional way to think about our relationship with food that has deepened my own gratitude and mindfulness. 

I have begun this exploration into ancient healing and modern medicine for the benefit of me, my family and YOU. It would make me so happy to hear what you think and what I can do better as in interviewer and learner. 

Dr Kapoor will be a regular contributor to the podcast, so please give him a big welcome.

John
