Think about how much your body has to deal with every single day.
Stress. Poor sleep. Constant snacking. And all the normal wear and tear happening inside your cells.
But here’s something most people don’t know.
Your cells have a built-in recycling system called autophagy. It breaks down damaged proteins and worn-out cellular parts so their materials can be reused.
And you don’t have to buy a supplement to make this process exist. Your body is already doing it.
What’s interesting is that the process responds to things like nutrient availability, which is why researchers are studying how fasting affects cellular health and aging.
So maybe the question isn’t just what you’re putting into your body. It’s also how well you’re taking care of the systems already inside it.
