| 0:00.0 | 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 so pumped for today's episode. We have a scientist joining us, Dr. Chris Rhodes, who has made a really unique and amazing discovery that has to do with fasting and the benefits that you can get |
| 0:22.4 | from the fasted state from doing prolonged fasting. So Dr. Chris Rhodes is a biochemistry |
| 0:28.8 | graduate from Loyola-Maramount University and a nutritional biochemistry PhD from UC Davis. |
| 0:36.6 | He completed an immunology fellowship at Stanford, |
| 0:40.5 | where he developed a passion for longevity and anti-agent research, which we are talking all about |
| 0:45.8 | today. Initially, it seemed to be a myth, but Chris soon realized that it's a very legitimate |
| 0:51.7 | area of research with an enormous impact on disease prevention. |
| 0:57.2 | Chris is dedicated to exploring the science behind longevity in order to find solutions that can |
| 1:03.3 | potentially solve the progression of all diseases, which is why he is the co-founder and CEO at |
| 1:09.8 | Mimeo Health. Mimeo is a nutraceutical company that is |
| 1:13.8 | pioneering the world's first fasting memetic supplement that is designed from clinical |
| 1:20.0 | research to replicate the cellular health benefits of fasting without actually needing to fast. |
| 1:26.2 | So on today's episode, we talk all about the studies |
| 1:29.8 | and research that Dr. Rhodes has done. What happens in the body when you do prolonged fasting, |
| 1:36.2 | what kind of metabolites are produced in the body and what those metabolites do. It really is |
| 1:42.3 | a super fascinating episode. I enjoyed it so, so much, |
| 1:46.8 | and I hope that you will all enjoy it as well. And I've linked up the study that we referenced |
| 1:51.8 | in particular in the show notes, if you'd like to go and check it out yourself. I want to tell you |
| 1:56.9 | about a very important nutrient that many of us are deficient in and not even aware of it. |
| 2:03.0 | And that nutrient is light and specifically red light. I am so passionate and obsessed with |
| 2:09.9 | the incredible amount of science behind red light therapy's ability to support our mitochondrial health. |
| 2:16.6 | Now our mitochondria, as you probably know, |
