Fasting - long term and intermittent as a factor in longevity

I was writing before about eating in a 6-10 hours interval and fast for the remaining 14-18 hours as a longevity hack. I was also talking about a monthly 24-72 hours fasting monthly with only water as a boost to health and a major "decrease in the inflammatory processes" hack.

In the following article you will also see an interesting detail, the author referring at health span as opposed to life span. As you guessed, the health span is the interval of life when we are healthy, and that is reminding me of James Dean's words "Ideally is to die young, but as late as possible."

Who wants to live forever?

Queen's "Who wants to live forever" was always one of my favorites song. And this is how i start one of a somehow different blog post, but of the same relevance like my other posts. We all want to become financially independent, and to retire early. So, in the essence, that means that we want to live better, and to enjoy life when we are still young. In the light of this line of thinking, i would suggest to take a look at this article.
