#4I wonder how much the effect is slowing metabolism relative to cancer cells.

#5If you have to provide a simple (ELI5, if you mention one scientific word their eyes rollup into their skull etc..) way to view how fasting 'controls' the cancerous growth in the body... sadhguru makes an easily digestible concept of 'crime' in the body [1].

ELI5 means break down the science into simple concepts that a 5 year old could understand.
Not here is some Deepak Chopra figure to explain it to you in voodoo

In his defence the abstract starts by talking about mice, which is a bit confusing. Sure they talk about patients as well but it's not immediately clear that mice can't be considered patients. If you read on it becomes clear though!

#10If there were ever a panacea, it would be fasting. The more tight and widespread the research becomes, the more that we prove what humanity has known anecdotally throughout civilisation.
From being a Roman cure for epileptic seizures, through the integral practice in most religions, and to the 21st century where we start to prove that it increases both healthspan and lifespan.
I find it quite interesting that something so simple, which practically anybody can do, can have such a positive effect on one's life. You are literally healing and regenerating yourself by doing nothing! And instead of compounding medical bills you actually save money!
Thank you modern science for validating my no longer fringe medical beliefs :)
