The Human Upgrade: The New Fasting Protocol to Increase Lifespan by 96%

In this episode of The Human Upgrade, Dave Asprey sits down with biochemist Chris Rhodes to reveal a groundbreaking fasting mimetic that could extend lifespan by 96%—without skipping meals. Mimio, a blend of four key metabolites naturally produced during fasting, replicates the cellular benefits of a 36-hour fast, outperforming traditional longevity drugs like Metformin and Rapamycin. Dave and Chris dive into the science of fasting, metabolism, and aging—unpacking how over-fasting can backfire, why Big Pharma won’t like this discovery, and how you can harness fasting benefits without extreme dietary restrictions.
