Welcome to the Optimal Protein Podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina.

Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host Vanessa and I am super excited for today's

episode. I am bringing you a very special episode all about protein sparing modified fasting.

I know so many of you have questions about this protein-based approach.

And I actually had an expert on the podcast come on, Dr. Brian Moll.

And his episode was the second most downloaded episode of 2022.

So I get a lot of requests and questions about what protein sparing modified fasting is exactly. A lot of people are curious about

what it is, it's history and background, and today's episode answers all those questions for you.

So this one is an amazing episode. There is so much information on protein sparing modified fasting.

If it's something that you just want to learn more about or you're interested in or maybe

you want to try it out for a week to break through a stall.

potentially for people if after checking with your care provider, it is something recommended for you.

So check this episode out. It will not disappoint. Before we get into the episode, I want to tell

you about a very important nutrient that many of us are deficient in and not even aware of it.

And that nutrient is light and specifically red light. I am so passionate and obsessed with the

Now, our mitochondria, as you probably know, are responsible for helping us to do pretty much

everything in our bodies at the cellular level. Now, when it comes

to energy levels, our immunity, our skin health and beauty, and even our metabolic health and fitness,

so much is connected back to our mitochondria's ability to function optimally. Now we talk on this podcast all the time
