I have a question about the episode Dr Layne Norton: The Science of Eating for Health, Fat Loss & Lean Muscle | Huberman Lab Podcast #97 and the clip Protein and Longevity. I'm concerned about the role of mTOR and IGF-1 in tumor growth as discussed in episode 36 of the Huberman Lab Podcast. Is there a balance that can be achieved between activating these pathways for muscle growth and strength training, and downregulating them through fasting? For example, could a cycle of 1 month of muscle-building weight training followed by a week of fasting help strike that balance? What might an optimal approach look like?
