To clarify. I am not a coffee addict, not even for a "moderate" / "infrequent" coffee drinking... I have experimented with drinking one cup of (organic) espresso daily for a period of 1 month at a time. I have ended this experiment a few days ago. I as well have experimented with eating 50gr of (org...

I think that burning fat is a positive thing on a high carbohydrate diet which contains lots of fresh fruits and/or fruit juices, and where lots of exercising is not a too high priority.

Coffee may promote a "positive" apoptosis which is a required function where and when needed... "Cells - too many, aka Cell senescence: This is a phenomenon where the cells are no longer able to divide, but also do not die and let others divide. They may also do other things that they’re not suppose...

Coffee is beneficial for fat-burning, especially during a fast. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2405717 study found that an infusion of epinephrine – a hormone which coffee increases – during “starvation” enhanced its lipolytic and thermogenic effects. In other words, fat-burning and metabolism u...

I'm also interested to hear more of other people's experience from maintaining warrior/IF diet. There are some 'IF'('Intermittent Fasting')/'Periodic Fast' Facebook groups that I follow, where people share IF related info and report own personal experience from doing IF.

Is anybody still doing this diet besides RMM and some people? Can anybody tell me how they are progressing? Yes, I'm doing IF with eating window from 16/8 to 20/4. 20/4 is ideal, but not easy to squeeze in all the fruits juicing and the eating within such a short eating window of 4-hrs. My prime fo...

- How much water do you drink during the day?

Do you need to drink water during the day even when not thirsty?

Furthermore, "dry-fasting" due to "no thirst" might accelerate the autophagy...?

Unless I've missed anything in this thread, RRM juices all the fruits (mainly oranges). You want to avoid fiber because otherwise it would be impossible (or very unpleasant) to consume all of your daily energy in such a small time window. 1. That would mean exclusion of many juicy fruits, such as: ...

Hi RRM, I follow your Wai-Warrior for autophagy experiment with great interest. I have some follow up questions for you: 1) do you juice all of the fruits you consume during the one meal eating window ? 2) is the reason to reduce/avoid the fiber which may (negatively) impact the digestion of protein...
