About this episode
What if you could trigger the benefits of a 36-hour fast—without skipping a single meal? Dr. Chris Rhodes, nutritional biochemist and founder of Mimio, joins Nikki and Buck to unpack the science behind fasting mimetics. Discover how specific molecules can mimic the effects of prolonged fasting, from activating autophagy to improving insulin sensitivity, reducing inflammation, and suppressing appetite. Plus, we dives into weird wellness history with Lord Byron's vinegar obsession and how apple cider vinegar actually affects metabolism.
