I'm concerned about the role of mTOR and IGF-1 in tumor growth as discussed in the episodes How FASTING Can Help YOU LOSE WEIGHT, LIVE LONGER, and THINK CLEARER and Fasting Insights. 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?
