Overall, I am enjoying the process of writing my weekly newsletters. Some of them come easier to me than others. I was absolutely on fire writing today's newsletter over the weekend. Perhaps it's because it's a topic that is in my sweet spot (biohacking). It could also be because I have used the principles of intermittent fasting to make a positive difference in my life, and I firmly believe fasting can help many people.

For some reason, fasting is a loaded topic. There are a lot of myths and supposed rules around fasting that have caused a lot of people to try it and then give up or claim it doesn't work. I have been fasting while wearing a continuous glucose monitor, and I assure you it WORKS. 

The science is now pretty clear. The old advice to eat multiple meals throughout the day to "keep your metabolism going" has been debunked. In the US especially, we are suffering from too much food and too many calories. We are wired to eat everything. The average person spends 15% of his thoughts thinking about his next meal. Imagine what you could do with that brainpower if you weren't focusing so much on food.

It's good to go without sometimes. This concept applies not only to food but also many other things: TV, social media, alcohol, etc.
