In Episode 76 of The Grizzly Life Podcast, Colton breaks down what he’s been learning about intermittent fasting — from the science behind it to the real-life results he’s seeing.

He dives into how fasting works, what happens inside your body during the process, and why timing your meals might be more important than you think. Colton explains concepts like autophagy (your body’s “clean-up crew”) and mTOR (the system that builds and repairs), plus how things like sleep, cold exposure, and meal timing all play a role in better health and longevity.

He also shares his personal experience with 24–48 hour fasts, mental clarity, and new habits that have boosted his discipline, energy, and focus — along with a few practical takeaways for anyone curious about trying fasting themselves.
