Dr. Steven Geanopulos and Andrew Cieply: Obese Man Lost 276lbs in 382 days by Eating Zero Calories

This week we are talking with Dr. Steven Geanopulos and Andrew Cieply about Angus Barberi, a man who went 382 days without eating and lost 276 lbs in the process. This conversation delves into the fascinating world of fasting, exploring its historical significance, physiological adaptations, and personal experiences. Andy and Dr. G discuss the body's ability to adapt to extended periods without food, and the role of ketosis in energy preservation. They also address common misconceptions about hunger and appetite, hormonal influences on eating behavior, and the potential discomforts associated with fasting. The discussion highlights the importance of considering individual differences in fasting practices, particularly in relation to exercise and overall health.
