Intermittent fasting from dawn to sunset for 30 consecutive days is associated with anticancer . . .

Healthline identifies a few different methods for intermittent fasting.

During the fasting periods, you eat either very little or nothing at all.

These are the most popular methods:

  • The 16/8 method: Also called the Leangains protocol, it involves skipping breakfast and restricting your daily eating period to 8 hours, such as 1–9 p.m. Then you fast for 16 hours in between.
  • Eat-Stop-Eat: This involves fasting for 24 hours, once or twice a week, for example by not eating from dinner one day until dinner the next day.
  • The 5:2 diet: With this method, you consume only 500–600 calories on two nonconsecutive days of the week, but eat normally the other 5 days.

By reducing your calorie intake, all of these methods should cause weight loss as long as you don’t compensate by eating much more during the eating periods.

Many people find the 16/8 method to be the simplest, most sustainable and easiest to stick to. It’s also the most popular.

When you're losing, when you're desperate, when things arent going your way, well then you have to change the rules: a recession is not a recession

Wealth generated through debt is costing us time.  It's borrowed time.  It's borrowed wealth.

10:40. Haven't had real GDP for 13 years because they have to print $14 of $28's worth of debt to get a $1's worth of GDP growth.  That's not growth.  That's$27's worth of loss.  

11:20. GDP growth based on government debt is not growth.  Because remember, GDP is Gross National Spending. It's not Gross National Product.  That's a BS term too.  That's also another one of these euphemisms for horse****.  It's just gross national spending.  We roughly total how much money we spend and say we outputted that much.  That's not the truth when government spending is $.25 on every dollar we spend . . . and the government is running a massive budget deficit. It's not growth; it's just not.  Real growth comes from savings and the multiplication of win-win transactions in the open market.  Real wealth comes from the saving of time through the application of individuals' comparative advantage, individuals' or firms' comparative advantage.  I'm better at making shoes, and you're better at making pottery.  We trade.  I save a couple of hours making you shoes, and you save me a couple of hours making me some dinner plates.  Wealth is a measure of stored time.  Wealth generated through debt is costing us time.  It's borrowed time.  It's borrowed wealth. 

13:15. GDP is just spending.  That's all that it is but it says nothing about the quality of the spending.  If we spend the money on Ukrainian hookers and bullets . . . does that constitute growth?  What happens when we run out of debt that we can sell to spend on Ukrainian hookers and bullets?  And all the people involved in the supply chain to produce to keep the Ukrainian hookers and bullet makers in business?  What happens to them when we run out of the ability to issue debt.  It's called mal-investment.  And when the money has been badly invested we wind up in a boom in terms of GDP growth that is unsustainable, it's built on debt, it's built on the mispricing of risk, it's built on interest rates being wrong.  It alters the structure of production across the entire economy.  It overproduces bullets and Ukrainian hookers as opposed to roads and food, like things that people actually want.  When you alter the structure of production like that eventually you run out of time.  You run out of actual resources that are actually available.  The prices of the resources that are available end up going up.
