Podcast appearances and mentions of Valter Longo

What if there was a clinically proven approach that could improve cancer survivability, support remission, and help protect healthy cells during treatment—yet most people have never heard about it? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Valter Longo, one of the world's leading researchers in longevity and cancer science, to uncover the groundbreaking research behind fasting and fasting mimicking diets. He has spent decades researching aging, fasting, cancer prevention, and longevity. His work on fasting mimicking diets is now being implemented in hospitals and clinics around the world. In the episode, we're going to dive deep into how strategic nutrition can influence cellular repair, metabolic health, inflammation, and even cancer outcomes. You're also going to discover how fasting impacts cancer cells differently than healthy cells, why metabolic flexibility matters for longevity, and how modern lifestyles are accelerating chronic disease. Dr. Longo also breaks down the connection between nutrition and cancer prevention, the role of protein intake in aging, and practical ways to improve your health span while reducing your risk of disease.

GLP-1s are the fastest growing drug trend in health right now. But a 30-year fasting study says there's something every user needs to know before their next dose. Dr. Valter Longo has spent 30 years studying aging and longevity at USC, running over 40 clinical trials on what actually makes people live longer and healthier. What he found challenges almost everything the wellness industry is pushing right now, from 16-hour fasting windows to high-protein diets to GLP-1 drugs. In this episode of Habits and Hustle, Dr. Longo breaks down the science behind the Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD), why 12 hours of fasting beats 16, and what centenarians around the world actually eat. He also shares his latest research on cancer, Alzheimer's, and why your body already has the tools to heal itself if you stop getting in its way. It's time to ask the right questions about the hottest longevity trends that are costing people more than helping them. What's Discussed: (2:01) Who is Dr. Longo and the training behind his research. (3:18) The hypothesis behind why we should be fasting differently. (5:39) What a Fasting Mimicking Diet actually contains and why. (7:27) The difference between the longevity diet and the FMD. (8:30) Why 12 hours of fasting beats 16 every time. (11:18) The hidden risks of skipping breakfast nobody talks about. (15:47) How the FMD resets your body's locked-in weight. (21:12) How the "recipe" behind the FMD was built over 20 years. (29:51) Why the cancer, Alzheimer's, and diabetes versions of FMD are all different. (35:11) The trial showing nearly double survival rates in cancer patients. (38:04) Dr. Longo's real take on protein and why less may mean longer life. (51:24) How often you should actually do the FMD. (53:08) What the research says about fasting and women. (56:40) Dr. Longo's honest breakdown of GLP-1 risks and side effects. (1:16:19) Findings beyond fasting that slow aging. (1:23:21) The four things the FMD triggers that nothing else does. (1:36:31) Why nutrition beats exercise for longevity and why that's not the full story. Thank you to my sponsors!Kion: Visit getkion.com/habits for 20% off.

Il massimo esperto mondiale di longevità non fa la restrizione calorica cronica.

Dr. Valter Longo explains how fasting-mimicking diets make cancer cells vulnerable to treatment while protecting healthy tissue, plus the clinical evidence, safety protocols, and why oncologists remain skeptical.Dr. Valter Longo, author of "Fasting Cancer," breaks down decades of research on using fasting-mimicking diets (FMD) alongside conventional cancer therapies. Cancer cannot be starved but it can be metabolically weakened by limiting resources which a the same time protects healthy cells. A process known as differential stress resistance. We cover: the mechanism behind why this works, clinical trial results in triple-negative breast cancer and other aggressive cancers, the surprising data on weight loss and cachexia, BMI cutoffs and safety protocols, how to approach your oncologist, prevention versus treatment applications, and the cutting-edge "escape pathway" research that could transform personalized cancer treatment. Dr Longo addresses the elephant in the room: why, despite promising results in both mouse models and human trials, this approach faces massive institutional and regulatory barriers to becoming standard of care. Practical, evidence-based information for patients, caregivers, and anyone interested in the intersection of nutrition and cancer biology.

Longevity expert Dr. Valter Longo dives deep into the science behind the Fasting Mimicking Diet and why it holds a significant edge over traditional water-only fasting.  Dr. Longo explains how the FMD is engineered to trigger cellular cleanup while providing essential nutrients that protect muscle mass and maintain gut integrity—avoiding the leaky gut risks seen in water-only trials WHAT YOU WILL LEARN Safety and Compliance: Unlike water-only fasting, which can cause hypotension and hypoglycaemia, the FMD is designed to be safer and much easier for the average person to complete. Gut Health Protection: Emerging research suggests that water-only fasting can actually increase leaky gut symptoms in mice Muscle Maintenance: The FMD utilises specific carbon sources like glycerol to support glucose production, which prevents the body from breaking down muscle tissue for energy during the fast.

Can fasting actually weaken cancer — and make chemotherapy work better?In this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions, Dr. K sits down with longevity and nutrition science pioneer Dr. Joseph Antoun to break down the emerging research on fasting, fasting-mimicking diets, and precision nutrition for cancer. Dr. Antoun explains why cancer thrives on growth signals, how traditional “eat more calories” advice may backfire, and what the science really says about starving cancer while protecting healthy cells.This conversation explores fasting-mimicking nutrition before chemotherapy, immune rejuvenation, autophagy, growth factors like insulin and IGF-1, muscle preservation, and why food-as-medicine may dramatically improve treatment tolerance and outcomes. If you or someone you love is navigating cancer — or wants to reduce risk through longevity-based nutrition — this episode delivers critical, science-backed insights you won't hear in a standard oncology visit.Key Takeaways:0:00 Introduction and why nutrition matters in cancer6:10 Starving cancer while protecting healthy cells9:20 Fasting-mimicking diets vs water fasting12:45 How fasting sensitizes cancer to chemotherapy16:30 Immune system rejuvenation and autophagy explained21:00 Nutrition strategies after cancer treatment for longevityResources Mentioned:L-Nutra / ProLon® Fasting Mimicking Diet - https://www.l-nutra.comL-Nutra Health – Diabetes & Nutrition Programs - https://www.lnutrahealth.comThe Longevity Diet by Valter Longo - https://www.valterlongo.comCREATE Cures Foundation (USC Longevity Clinics) - https://createcures.org -----------------------------------------------A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health ThreatGrab my book here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering CancerGet it here: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-powerPrice: $24.99100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1 Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of CancerGet it here: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-withinPrice: $24.99100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2-----------------------------------------------Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.

In this raw "trifecta" episode, Ashley, Brian, and Collin sit down for a candid update on Brian's battle with Stage 4 tongue cancer. Recorded just weeks before a life-altering surgery, the team discusses the physical toll of chemo, the overwhelming weight of "decision fatigue," and how the dental community has rallied to support them. This is an unfiltered look at resilience and the reality of navigating a healthcare system in crisis.1. Life in the "Messy Middle"Family Strength: Brian shares the emotional (and humorous) reality of home life, from their sons shaving their heads in solidarity to a breakthrough moment of faith and empathy with their middle son, Brady.The "Messy Years": Brian reflects on a quote by Chris Dixon: "The messy years make the obvious years possible." He views this grueling season as the "mess" that will eventually become a message of hope.2. Clinical & Dietary PivotsMetabolic Support: Brian details his 72-hour fast leading into his third round of chemo to improve treatment tolerance and "starve" the metabolic pathways of the tumor.The 180-Degree Shift: After seeing rapid growth on high protein, the couple pivoted to a 95% plant-based, whole-food diet inspired by Dr. Valter Longo. Ashley discusses the shift to juicing and "clean" plant proteins like lentils and tofu.Favorable Momentum: Recent imaging shows that while the journey is far from over, the tumor growth has slowed, and the lymph node architecture is improving.3. The Mental Burden: Decision FatigueThe Surgical Plan: Brian explains the upcoming Hemi-Glossectomy (removing half the tongue) and reconstruction using a thigh graft.The Weight of Choice: After researching alternative trials (like Chef Shirley's non-surgical path in Chicago), Brian speaks candidly about "decision fatigue." When every choice feels like life or death, he has reached a point of mental exhaustion. He finds a strange peace in surgery because it shifts his role from "decision-maker" to "rehab worker."4. Advocacy & A Broken SystemAccess Challenges: Despite being a physician, Brian reveals the "mind-boggling" difficulty of scheduling scans, with major institutions booked out for months.The Power of the Tribe: Ashley discusses her "bulldog" approach to advocacy—leveraging her network to get a patient liaison at MD Anderson in Houston within 30 minutes of a single text.This episode is made possible by: Studio 8E8 — Dentistry's story-driven growth agency for startups.

Today I'm joined by Professor Valter Longo to unpack what actually slows biological ageing, and what most women are getting wrong about fasting, protein, and diet. We explore the difference between chronological age and biological age, how biological ageing is measured, and why chasing extreme fasting or high-protein trends may quietly undermine long-term health. Professor Longo shares decades of research behind the Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD), explains why most popular fasting protocols may increase cardiovascular risk, and outlines the dietary patterns consistently linked to the world's longest-living populations. This conversation cuts through longevity hype with evidence from human trials, centenarian studies, and 100 years of ageing research, offering a grounded, practical framework for improving healthspan without extremes. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • The real difference between chronological age and biological age – and how it's measured • Why blood biomarkers may be more reliable than epigenetic ageing clocks right now • What organ-specific ageing clocks reveal about hidden health risks • How long it actually takes to activate meaningful autophagy in humans • Why most intermittent fasting protocols may increase heart disease risk • The science behind the 5-day Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD) • FMD vs water fasting: gut health, muscle preservation, and safety • Why skipping breakfast is linked to higher cardiovascular mortality • The optimal daily eating window for longevity (and why 12 hours matters) • How often to use FMD for longevity, metabolic health, and disease prevention • Why excess protein may accelerate ageing and disease risk • How much protein humans actually need for longevity • The ideal macronutrient balance for healthspan and lifespan • How nutrition consistently outperforms exercise for lifespan extension • Practical longevity habits around sleep, stress, and lifestyle timing Timestamps 00:00 Intro: Biological Age vs Chronological Age 04:03 Organ-Specific Ageing: Why One Age Score Can Be Misleading 06:15 Autophagy Explained: How Long It Really Takes in Humans 08:59 The Longevity Diet & Fasting Mimicking Diet Explained 11:26 Why Most Fasting Protocols May Be Harmful Long-Term 16:58 Skipping Breakfast, Cholesterol & Heart Disease Risk 18:36 Water Fasting vs FMD: Gut Health, Microbiome & Muscle Loss 35:03 Protein Intake Myths: Muscle, Ageing & Disease Risk 42:46 Sleep, Stress & Lifestyle Factors That Extend Healthspan VALUABLE RESOURCES A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: • MitoQ NAD+

Dr. Longo is the Director of the Longevity Institute at the University of Southern California's Leonard Davis School of Gerontology and the Director of the Longevity and Cancer Program at IFOM, the Italian Foundation for Cancer Research Institute of Molecular Oncology in Milan. He is the author of the bestselling book The Longevity Diet and was named one of TIME Magazine's 50 most influential people in health care for his research on fasting-mimicking diets. Together, Dave Asprey and Dr. Longo explain why many people focus too heavily on short-term effects and extrapolate them incorrectly across a lifetime. They break down how intermittent fasting differs biologically from multi-day fasting, why five-day fasting cycles trigger deeper cellular changes, and how insulin, IGF-1, mTOR, and growth hormone shape aging, regeneration, and disease risk over time. The conversation covers protein and amino acid intake, muscle preservation, frailty risk, and the tradeoffs between strength, function, and longevity. They explore ketosis, fasting-mimicking diets, stem cell activation, mitochondrial function, neuroplasticity, and why equilibrium and cycling matter more than constant restriction. Dave and Valter also discuss supplements, nootropics, creatine, carnivore-style eating, metabolism, sleep optimization, and how AI may eventually personalize fasting and nutrition based on individual biology rather than population averages. You'll learn: • Why short-term fasting benefits do not predict long-term longevity • How fasting duration changes gene expression and cellular regeneration • The difference between intermittent fasting and multi-day fasting • How protein and amino acids influence mTOR, IGF-1, and aging • Why muscle, strength, and longevity must be balanced, not maximized • When ketosis overlaps with fasting and when it does not • Why supplements can disrupt biological equilibrium • How AI could support future personalization in fasting and nutrition Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Jones Professor of Gerontology and Biological Sciences and Director of the Longevity Institute at the USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, a leading center for aging and disease research. Trained in biochemistry at the University of North Texas and UCLA, with postdoctoral work under longevity pioneers Roy Walford and Caleb Finch, Dr. Longo has built a multidisciplinary research career spanning genetics, immunology, endocrinology, and molecular biology. His laboratory has identified key genetic pathways that regulate aging and demonstrated how targeting these pathways can reduce disease risk and progression in both animal models and humans, including novel dietary and genetic strategies that protect healthy cells while making cancer cells more vulnerable to treatment.   Dr. Longo is widely known for developing the fasting mimicking diet, a five-day periodic dietary intervention shown in randomized clinical trials to reduce markers associated with aging and chronic disease, while promoting stem cell–based regeneration and longevity. His work has earned numerous prestigious awards, including the Glenn Award for Aging Research, and in 2018 he was named one of Time Magazine's 50 most influential people in health care. Deeply committed to public health and accessibility, Dr. Longo donates all proceeds from his bestselling books, including The Longevity Diet and Fasting Cancer, to research and education through his foundations in Milan and Los Angeles, advancing affordable strategies to prevent disease and extend healthy lifespan.

Most of us have heard about the health benefits of fasting; from lowering disease risk to even slowing down ageing. The catch? Going without food is tough. Really tough. However, according to Dr. Valter Longo, it doesn't have to be so hard. His pioneering research, including the development of the ‘fast-mimicking diet', is making fasting more practical and accessible for everyone. Today, Valter joins Tim Spector and I to explain how a pause from food transforms the way our cells behave, and how you can make fasting part of your life.

This Fasting Compilation features Dr. Alan Goldhamer, Dr. Valter Longo, and Dr. Michael Greger to discuss the science of strategic deprivation. We explore why visceral fat behaves like a tumor secreting inflammatory molecules that drive chronic disease. How many health conditions stem from dietary patterns rather than requiring medication alone. The evolutionary mechanism of insulin resistance and the reality that when you eat can matter as much as what you eat, with the same calories producing opposite metabolic outcomes depending on meal timing. I also share my own challenges. Knowing the science doesn't make implementation easy. Listen. Learn. And discuss with your healthcare provider what makes sense for you. Enjoy! CRITICAL SAFETY NOTE: Under no circumstances should anyone undertake a water fast of any length without medical supervision. Do not attempt this at home.

Episode #227 In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community: 1. Can people tweak the 5:2 diet with the two non-consecutive restricted calorie days as full fast days (water only) and reap the same if not better results, or must food in the form of nutrient dense and low calorie be consumed? [09:21] 2. I have seen videos of Dr Fung endorsing the Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD). Does he, Dr Fung advocate it for T2D? I am asking because of the plant based (carb) items in the kit, like the soups, crackers, and bars and the potential spike in insulin and glucose consuming those items? [14:30] 3. While an individualized approach to managing and/or reversing diabetes is best, from a diet perspective, is it generally better to have a diverse diet and manage diabetes with medication if needed, rather than restricting your diet to avoid medication? [18:55] 4. Can one - or more importantly should one - practice OMAD to reverse IR or T2D?  Is there a nutritional concern here?  Is the length of time that you do OMAD a factor? [21:12] 5. Do I have to leave the weights workout for the last day of prolonged fasting and eat after the workout or can I work out with weights every day during a 5-day fast without problem and continue fasting AFTER the heavy weights workout? [27:01] 6. Is long term ketosis bad for the body? Some doctors are saying it is and you should carb cycle, but are there any studies supporting this?

“The morning, up until around lunch, is the best time of day to eat most of our calories. And in fact, there's been really great research. Even if you don't change the timing of your meals, if you make breakfast and lunch the largest meals of the day and dinner the smallest meal of the day, you lose more weight. And not only do you lose more weight, you're actually less hungry.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson  “Talk about these time intervals. Why is 14 a magic number?” -Jason Wrobel  “Typically, it takes the body about 12 to 14 hours to burn through a lot of its glycogen stores. Initially after a meal, your body's gonna be burning a lot of carbohydrates—so, glucose. It's gonna burn through a lot of the actual food in the meal, then it'll store some, burn others.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson  “Are there any scientifically reported benefits for hormone health, or managing cancer, with TRE?” -Jason Wrobel  “The area of cancer is super fascinating. Valter Longo does a lot of work in both the realms of aging and longevity, and cancer. Many years ago, he and some collaborators discovered if you fast cells or animals with cancer prior to treating the cancer with chemotherapy and radiation, you could kill tumors far more effectively.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson What if the timing of your meals mattered just as much as the food on your plate? In this episode, we're diving into the fascinating science of time-restricted eating with Dr. Courtney Peterson—one of the world's leading researchers on how aligning our meals with the body's internal clock can transform our health. A Harvard-trained scientist and Associate Professor of Nutrition Sciences at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Dr. Peterson was the first to test early time-restricted eating in humans, and her groundbreaking work is redefining how we think about metabolism, energy, and chronic disease. If you've ever wondered if nourishment runs deeper than nutrients—that your body might be seeking harmony—then this episode will strike a chord. What we discuss in this episode: Different types of intermittent fasting: how they compare, and what benefits they offer. The science behind time-restricted eating (TRE). How TRE supports weight loss and appetite regulation. Fasting, aging, and the process of autophagy. The best time of day to consume the majority of your calories. How meal timing can influence fertility and reproductive health in women. Grazing vs. structured mealtimes: what the science shows. The intersection of cancer treatment and fasting: what emerging research reveals. Hypertrophy and intermittent fasting. How fasting influences exercise performance. Dr. Peterson's personal approach to intermittent fasting.
