Autophagy is attracting a lot of curiosity for its potential health benefits. It is the process when the body starts to reprocess the structures inside its cells, the nucleus where the DNA is stored is recycled, the mitochondria, which combines the chemical our cells use for energy, and lysosomes, that helps with the removal of waste from our cells. While this is done, the cell can remove unused and non-functioning structures.

This could help to promote autophagy, but to understand how we should look at what happens to us after we eat.“When you stop eating at 19:00 you will still be in the ‘fed state’ until 22:00 because you will still be digesting nutrients,” says Clarkson. “Any carbohydrates in your diet will give you a nice supply of glucose, our premium source of fuel, for a few hours.”
