The Journey To Longevity And Well-Being

Fasting & Longevity Summit

<h6>David Jockers, DNM, DC, MS</h6>
Welcome to the Fasting and Longevity Summit. I'm your host, Dr. David Jockers, and I'm excited to interview my co-host for this summit, Dr. Joseph Antoun. And we are going to talk about why fasting is the best longevity lifestyle intervention. And of course, it doesn't cost you anything. But we're also going to talk about some powerful food-based resources that you can use to mimic the effects of fasting and why that may be more advantageous in certain circumstances. And so a little bit about Dr. Joseph Antoun. His passion is to enhance human longevity. He is the CEO and chairman of the board at L-Nutra Inc. a unique nutrition technology company leading the longevity in food as medicine markets. You can find his website ProLonLife.com. and Dr. Joseph Antoun has dedicated his professional experience to launching two novel markets. The first is the longevity market, whereby he launched the first tested and patented healthy aging product called ProLon. The second is the food as medicine market, where he launched Nutrition for Longevity, which is now among the first foods ever to be reimbursed by CMS and insurance. 

So truly food is being used as medicine and recognized as medicine. And he's also ProLon and his companies have also helped to fund a lot of great research into fasting and fasting-mimicking diets. And so real powerful information here. Be sure to share this with anybody that you know and that you care about. Get them involved in this summit so they can learn how to use fasting as medicine to reverse aging, slow down aging, I should say, and reduce their risk of developing chronic disease. This is a powerful information. Again, please share this with somebody that you know and they care about. And let's go into the interview. Well, Dr. Joseph, great to be with you today, excited about this conversation. I know you've been working in this fasting and longevity space for a long time. You've got some incredible knowledge and love what you and your company, L-Nutra, are bringing to the space and helping people access this natural form of medicine in the form of fasting and food technologies that help us to get the benefits of fasting, particularly with certain population groups that may struggle with fasting. And so let's start with this question. Why is fasting a core longevity intervention?
