@Likewise Great advice ! I am down that road too: low carb chocoholic (now moving on to cocoa nibs) with 6 hours of feed window 5 days a week.

I am 58 years old and insulin resistant. The above nutritional changes plus 40 min of strenght/cardio training every other day, have given me a new lease on life.

My own two bits: walnuts, pecanas, macadamias and avocado provide a lot of healty fats and Omega3/6 balance. When taken at the end of the feeding window, they make the 18 hr fast a piece of... err meatpie 🙄 !

I also make my own cannabinoid extracts. Non psychotropic ones such as cannabinol CBN (main CB2 receptor agonist) and CBD from flower (no hemp) help regulate blood sugar, stabilize mood and protect my liver, spleen colon and pancreas.

Gladly surprised to find your testimony as health does not seem to be a priority for mastodon people...

Diagram depicting which human organs relate to which endocannabinoid receptors. Lungs, brain, vascular system, reproductive organs and muscle behaviour are regulated by CB1 receptors ( anandamide and THC). Colon, spleen and immune system are regulated by CB2 receptors (2-AG and CBN). Bones, pancreas and liver are regulated by both type of receptors.

Do you fast regularly, once or more per year? For any reason.
Just ended my first four day fast, trying to kick start some health improvement. I am amazed at how good I feel today.
Hoping I'm on to something.
We've done daily two meal/intermittent fasting with a low sugar diet for a few years and it changed my life for the better, but now I'm wanting to learn more about incorporating multi-day fasts as another health improvement tool. #fasting #weightloss

A few photos from today's walk! The Wayerhauser building was looking especially pretty today.

#Fasting today, which always makes my walks feel distinctly *different.* Part of that is mild hunger, weakness that's more psychosomatic than actually real. Part is a perceived lightness, as though I could run faster and jump higher. I find myself taking slower steps in contrast to that feeling, deeper breaths.

The Wayerhauser building in Federal Way WA is looking good! Five floors of lush greenery look out across a large pond under a gloriously striated sky.
A cluster of red flowers hangs on a narrow green branch, just freshly leafing out.
A tree begins to bloom, opening a fistful of sharply textured new leaves.
A mossy patch growing on a birch tree spreads out tendrils to soak up last night's rain.
