Sauna seems pretty close, it’s just sitting somewhere hot on a regular basis and is quite pleasant. Saw a study recently that showed broad, dose dependent health effects. Personally it really seems to help when I’m overloaded with stress, in a direct immediate way.
It screws up your semen.
Its not clear to me, when the 10 hour feeding window was allowed. Was this still at night, or some part of the day where the sun was up?

> “It’s not a pill, but a healthy habit that can significantly reduce these three risks of disease without any adverse side effects.” This is probably the case for a lot of health issues. But we always want a pill that will fix the issues while allowing us not to change our habits.

I am always unsure how this applies to someone with an irregular exercise schedule. If, when fasting (intermittent) my exercise is primarily cardio then I will continue fasting. However if it is resistance training, does getting some protein into my system as soon as possible take priority over fasting? Or is this less important than the immediate-protein-shake crowd suggests? Should I try to pull the window forward…

From what I've read, this may be not as important as originally thought.
Overall, I believe the schedule that most holistically supports metabolism would be to exercise early and also eat early in the day. This would thereby keep the taxing metabolic activities aligned to your circadian clock, which expects a lot of early day stressors and fewer as the day progresses. This may be specifically true for protein which is especially metabolically taxing, so eating it early in the day is probably the time when it creates the most benefit at lowest risk.
Of course, people have to do what works for their schedules and lifestyles.

My caloric window is 1-8pm and I exercise in the mornings with just a few essential amino-acids.

Do you think you can find that study?
Applies to late shift working, which is already well-known as a health risk
