Corriere.it - Homepage: Valter Longo: «Il dilemma delle proteine. Legumi e pesce rinforzano la muscolatura. Troppa carne accelera l’invecchiamento»

Una rivista americana ha scritto che consigliavo «40 grammi di legumi», mentre io avevo parlato di «40 grammi di proteine provenienti dai legumi». Un errore enorme

Valter Longo: “The protein dilemma. Legumes and fish strengthen muscle. Too much meat speeds up aging.”

An American magazine wrote that I recommended “40 grams of legumes,” while I had spoken of “40 grams of protein from legumes.” A huge mistake.

Valter Longo: «I cibi "low fat" non allungano la vita: ecco i grassi che fanno bene»

Una ricerca spagnola ha dimostrato che olio d'oliva e frutta a guscio riducono nettamente infarti e ictus

Valter Longo: “Low-fat foods do not lengthen life: here are the fats that are good for you.”

An Italian study has shown that olive oil and nuts significantly reduce heart attacks and strokes.

Seguire una dieta principalmente vegana, ma con un adeguato apporto di proteine animali, evita malnutrizione e fragilità

Valter Longo: "The two keys to slowing aging and reducing cancer risk"

Following a predominantly vegan diet but with an adequate intake of animal protein helps prevent malnutrition and fragility.

Sono assolutamente favorevole ad introdurre varie forme di digiuno nella programmazione del proprio regime alimentare (che preferisco al termine, IMHO sbagliato, di "dieta")

E non penso debba essere un tabù come invece lo è stato per troppo tempo (per vari motivi)

Ma ormai quando vedo #ValterLongo (che pure in parte stimavo) pubblicizzare *ovunque* sui media mainstream e di continuo i suoi (costosissimi) kit "mimadigiuno" (brand registrato...), rimango infastidito

I finally posted the analysis from the first run of my Valter Longo Inspired Cancer Avoidance Fast. It is a pretty dry analysis of changes in various biomarkers, how I felt, what I may change when I do it again in the future, etc. If you are expecting miraculous results you'll be disappointed. I wasn't expecting them nor did I get them. This is about a relatively small and easy (for me) intervention that I'm hoping can potentially reduce my overall risk of getting cancer when done once or twice a year. #ValterLongo #fasting #CancerAvoidanceFast #longevity #fitness

With enough time to capture a couple of weeks of data after the fast, it is now possible to take a look at what the results were from the fast as well as to discuss how I felt about it overall and potential tweaks for the future. This is the final post in this series for my first go of this fast. The usual disclaimer applies though. I am not a doctor, trainer, dietitian, nutritionist, or any other expert in any related field. I’m talking about my amateur and anecdotal experiences here and none of this should replace expert medical advice.

As promised yesterday, here is a post on the multi-day fasting protocol I have created for myself. It is five days total with three days being a "water" fast. It is inspired by a combination of Dr. Valter Longo's three day "water" fast (which shows some evidence of potentially helping reduce cancer risk) and his Fast Mimicking Diet (which shows some evidence of helping as well but in a more approachable, non-fasting way). #health #longevity #fasting #cancer #ValterLongo #FastMimickingDiet #MultiDayFast

As I wrote in my “Thoughts on Fasting” post I am primarily looking to perform these multi-day fasts for cancer avoidance purposes. There is some evidence that a 3 day fast can help cut cancer risks. It is not a guarantee but the cost and risk associated with doing these things is small enough to make doing these things once or twice a year worth it even if it turns out to not have the cancer fighting benefit. A big part of the body of research I’ve followed on fasting has come from coverage of the works of Dr. Valter Longo . For years he has been an advocate for periodic multi-day fasts and avoiding excessive protein intake to increase longevity and cut down on cancer risks. This post highlights how I’ve designed my cancer avoidance fast around his techniques and research.
