What a fam, it's episode 258 of The Genius Life.

Welcome aboard.

What's going on everybody welcome back to another episode of The Genius Life.

I'm your host Max Lugovere, filmmaker, health and science journalist in New York Times,

best selling author. I've dedicated my life to unraveling the science behind our choices,

including what we eat and how we live, affect our cognitive and physical performance,

how we feel and our health span and risk for disease. This podcast is all about how to live in

that optimal state, which I call living like a genius. Guys, on today's episode of the show,

I welcome Thomas Delaur. Thomas is a fitness coach and keto diet and intermittent fasting advocate

with a YouTube channel that has over three million subscribers. He's also written several books about

fitness, including his latest intermittent fasting made easy. Next level hacks to supercharge fat

loss, boost energy and build muscle. On today's episode, you are going to learn about all things

intermittent fasting and more. We're going to talk about how intermittent fasting can help you

maintain a calorie deficit by shrinking the window of time in which you're consuming calories.

We're going to talk about the macronutrient that Thomas says you should always break your fast

with. We're going to talk about why it's probably important to eat with the sun. We're going to

cover a touch on a bit of circadian biology on that one. We're going to talk about ways to reduce

inflammation, how adding MCT oil to your diet can provide health benefit and lemon water.

Everybody's curious, at least on social media about the value of adding lemon to your water.

And Thomas is going to break it down for you in a way that only Thomas can. I love having this

chat with him. He's clearly a guy who is well versed in the literature on intermittent fasting and

body composition, fitness, all that stuff. So please listen through all the way to the end and
