Exercise for Longevity: From Fasting Physiology to Next-Gen Performance Nutrition
summary
Clinic research shows 10 days fasting preserves muscle power despite reduced volume, and a 5‑day fasting kit shifts substrate use so cyclists burn fat at higher power outputs within days. A planned randomized trial in postmenopausal women will use four arms and adipose biopsies to measure mitochondrial effects. Isolation of the gut microbe Rosura ununiorans increases mouse grip strength ~30% and cuts muscle fatigability ~70%, prompting a phase‑1 plan and a fermented‑fruit endurance gel that raises carb uptake with fewer GI symptoms.
