아내 치매 돌봄 기록 손주: Cells recycle themselves through a process called autophagy

(2) Facebook

Japanese cell biologist Yoshinori Ohsumi won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for discovering how cells recycle themselves through a process called autophagy 😊Autophagy, which means “self-eating,” is the body’s way of cleaning out damaged parts of cells and reusing them for energy, especially when food is scarce.When the body doesn’t receive enough nutrients, cells break down and recycle their own worn-out components to survive.Ohsumi identified the key genes that control this process by studying yeast cells, and his work helped scientists understand how autophagy affects diseases like cancer, Parkinson’s, and Alzheimer’s.His discovery changed how researchers view cell survival and health, proving that even at a microscopic level, the body has its own built-in recycling system.

Sonia Rollins

So, I see a lot of comments regarding intermittent fasting or Ramadan. Deep cell autophagy doesn’t kick in until 48-72 hours of fasting.

Lester Martis

When I fasted for 36hours, the mind changed completely, I got more active than feeling weak. Unless you are not starving, you do not need food 3 times. Now I just have coffee in the morning and breakfast has shifted to lunch time and dinner after 4 hours. Life does change with it, more clarity in the brain.

Ps. Keep consuming mineral water.

Emmanuel Alan Albaña

It's called fasting

Andrew Sanchez

Fasting just became a whole lot more interesting

Nana Yasuko

Is that why fasting works against cancer?

Philip Vanier

So cannibal cells in the next season of Cells at Work?

Jordan Davis

Probably how I survived brain cancer at age 13. I couldn't eat or drink for a week leading up to the discovery of what was causing it. My body was trying to recycle itself

Steven Solnitzky

If you were an animal In the wild, do you think you would be eating three meal a day at the same time everyday. Fasting makes perfect sense

Colleen Brenda Smith

Steven Solnitzky yes, I also got told the cavemen would feast then not eat again for hours and then go out and hunt again - makes so much sense. I managed to stabilise my sugar through fasting.

Gino Veli

Been saying this to my peers ad nauseam. Lions don’t eat everyday. When they’re hungry they hunt. Stuff there faces and then sleep. Rinse and repeat

JohnathanPerry O'Brien

Steven Solnitzky so right on

Khaled Ghazaly

I'm no science guy but does this mean on longer run cells could eat the cancerous cells?

Kim Buer

Khaled Ghazaly nah cancer is different they kind hijack the security system of the body identifying as normal/common/healthy cells

Carlos Taylor

Khaled Ghazaly no. The body thinks cancer is healthy cells

Miranda Ween

Khaled Ghazaly there is a whole subset of immune cells whose job it is to eat things that shouldnt be there. But cancer cells are very good at hiding from them.

CAR-T therapy is where you take some of those immune cells out of the body and then teach them the ways they hide, and then put them back in to do their thing. Its proven very effective in trials in a number of trials. So watch this space!

Marc Truckle

Khaled Ghazaly Keto is not an anti cancer diet. Doctors would not recommend it

Lewis Low

Khaled Ghazaly i think cancer cell mind control healthy cell ? Like zombies

Hernan Luzardo

So when there's no food you become the food?

Jacob Hilderbrand

Hernan Luzardo yes but it will eat muscle before fat. If you are in ketosis then you are eating less carbs and sugar so your body releases ketones which unlock the stored energy in fat.

Extreme cases you enter starvation mode and then you can die if you start eating food again too quickly.

Javi Alt Mil

Hernan Luzardo ask octopuss, they are awesome smart creatures and don't blink for eat one leg

Michael Huynh

Hernan Luzardo well that’s how the body works in general, the body burns fat cells when on a calorie deficit and eats muscle if there’s no calories

Michael Huynh

Hernan Luzardo lucky bastards, I’m counting everything I eat and hit the gym everyday

Nadia Bugden

Well, that might explain how my Crohns Disease went into remission. Back in 1992, only tree huggers went to health farms but I was desperate. I was in pain & the drugs weren’t working. I told my specialist that I was going to try fasting at a Health Farm. He laughed at me.

By the end of 6 weeks of fasting they had weened me off all drugs & my Crohns went into remission (for about 7 years).

I excitedly told my Specialist & he said… “That’s ridiculous. There is no correlation. It was just spontaneous remission.”

Fast forward to 2012 & I asked my new Specialist if there was any new treatment for Crohn’s disease. He replied… Yes, we fast patients in hospital with an IV drip.

Allison Wanders

Nadia Bugden what kind of fasting? Can you share specific details? Like how many hours in a day? Water fast?

Kristina Polizzi

Nadia Bugden mine did that as well although it took longer

Paula Anne Read

Nadia Bugden of course. Give your gut a break and it cures itself. It’s not rocket science

Carol Cain

Nadia Bugden Well done to you!

Ela Ella

Nadia Bugden you are right. 42 days of fasting it’s miracle.

Julie Hanauer

Nadia Bugden Did you fast on just liquids for 6 weeks?

Mark Deluca

Nadia Bugden specialist sounds like a jerk

David Heaton

Mark Deluca Only been trained into issuing drugs."Oh we've got a pill for that" Never try to find the underlying cause of the illness.Or investigate other methods.And thats the agenda of the big farma.Just keep handing out the pills.100s of billions of pounds worth of pills ect are consumed per year.They don't won't well people.Can't make money from well people.

Burlacu Dragos

Endrit Shabani

It is interesting how the cells are able to identify the damaged one

Khang Hoàng

Endrit Shabani otherwise, if those cells don't self destruct, or even worse, replicate, you have cancer

Dale

Endrit Shabani Cancer is tricky that it fools the rest of the body.

Mizan Qistina

Damaged cells underwent nuclear transformation first, causing bits of receptor to be displayed on cell surface. This attracts the macrophages to come eat.

John Puvin

Bruh are you serious?? When you're doing something and it goes wrong, you can identify the fault with a look from your eyes and decided in your brain. Then why would a cell cant identify a damaged cell when the brain is made of cells

John Puvin

Here comes the fakie

Naomi Dongelmans

Werner Van Gelder TROLL

Brian Estrada

Endrit Shabani If you like that then you would like white blood cells. White blood cells are highly specialized defenders that make up roughly 1% of your blood but act as a sophisticated, constantly active military force. Made in bone marrow and stored in tissues, they protect the body by identifying, attacking, and engulfing invaders like bacteria, viruses, and parasites.

Annika Månstorp

Endrit Shabani yeah! When the heart can't see the the red flags when we fall in love

Stefanos Psikarakis

Endrit Shabani if only society would do the same

Justin Kase

Yeah but don’t starve yourself of protein if you do this. Not unless you want your body eating your muscle because it needs protein to fuel its other processes.

Sonia Rollins

Justin Kase fasting to induce autophagy literally means no protein either. You need electrolytes during the process, not protein.

Justin Kase

Sonia my bad I meant extensively. Meaning 3-5 days max. Anything more than that risks muscle catabolism.

Craig Springman

Justin Kase note that working out, such as weight training, to tear the muscles leads to the repair response and prevents your body using proteins for food in the vacuum. My dr and fitness coach both recommended high water intake, weights, and 72 hrs fasting once a week and the results were great

Jonathan Herring

Justin Kase Maybe if you are like 4% body fat. If your body has a ton of stored fat like most of us, your body will burn the fat, long before it touches the lean tissue. If humans lost their strucual muacle mass after a few days of fasting, our species would have ceased to exist millennia ago. We have stored fat for a reason.

Jayna Le Baron

Craig Springman, so you lift during the fast too? Do you change how you exercise during the fast at all?

Dean Doherty

Craig Springman well lucky that 72 hr fast is only once a week....

Adil Gashimov

Fasting 72hrs will make you lose 20lbs

Martin Kroneraff

Justin Kase, you can't eat or drink anything with calories, so basically water, tea or coffee. Eating protein would stop the fasting process.

Richard Miller

Okay, so EAA supplements and you’ll be fine!

It’s called fasting. This is just the explanation of how fasting works. My great grandmother lived to be 106 and would’ve lived longer if she didn’t fall. Anyway,I asked her what she ate,if she ate a lot,I suspect not much and she said not a lot mostly grapes,beans avocados so whatever she did eat was healthy

Pater T Haber

Fasting or Autophagy. Fasting was mentioned many times in the Bible. God's gift of self-healing and spiritual growth. It heals many ageing illnesses and retards the ageing process.

Haris Masood

Pater T Haber Fasting is mentioned in Quran too and muslims are currently fasting in month of Ramadan.. so whats your point exactly?

Andrew Clark Cass

Pater T Haber most religions have a form of it, called the same or different.

but during process low energy surely

especially during fasting you do works

it feel lthe metabolism in works

because my body got in shape

also it better eating enough during iftar

dont over eating

that can be used to diets programs

without any exercise

for myself im usually losing 4-6kg doing it during Ramadan

For first timers in fasting, first you have to prepare your body to be condition in starving. In the Philippines, they conduct seminars to be guided in a rightful way of fasting and achieve good results. In fasting, the water use in drinking must be a non acidic and free from chlorine. We do not go fasting at once, we went through cleansing diet first, where only fresh fruits are taken such as oranges, apples, pears, grapes, mangos, papaya, banana, watermelon, cantaloupe etc., and fresh fruit juices not in a can or in bottle (for these can and bottled juices are acidic). That is called, cleansing diet, this is what we do before going into fasting.

Ram Dubha

If you want to reset your entire body and immune system, and stop any blood-related diseases or recovery from damage cells, you must practice fasting. That is how the body heals itself—by consuming its own damaged cells.

This has always been a part of Sanatan Dharma; the Hindu way of life includes the practice of fasting. Nowadays, it is called "intermittent fasting" or given other English names.

Unfortunately, we Indians often fail to read, appreciate, or take pride in our own history, nor do we try to explore it deeply. Thousands of years ago, our ancestors made remarkable discoveries and inventions—such as the telescope, the concept of lightning, knowledge of galaxies, the number zero, advances in science, iron, gold, light, cotton, wool, timekeeping, surgical procedures, vaccines, and even flying aircraft—among many others. However, we failed to preserve this knowledge. Others read from our stolen texts, reinvented these ideas, and took credit for them—while we clapped for them. We should appreciate whoever created something, but let’s not forget who truly created it: the masters.

What needs to be accepted and normalized is that it is okay to be hungry. Being full and feeling full all the time is not healthy but somehow our society has normalized this. Eating to over saturation with huge calories counts per meal and portion sizes that are 2-3 meals in one has become the norm. We need to retrain our brains and our body to not need to be full.

George Tutt

This is why i only eat 1 meal a day.. Since i was a kid, i couldn’t FORCE myself to have something if i wasn’t hungry.. My parents would worry and ask me why i never ate lunch or breakfast.. And i could never explain it, but now I’m older, i’ve found since i cut down on consuming, i haven’t necessarily lost weight or become underdeveloped, instead my body actually feels a lot stronger, a strict 1 protein-based meal a day paired with regular exercise, means i only really get “sick” once every couple years.. And even then i can fight it off within a day or two.. I like to think all the time my body is empty, the only thing it can break down and target is bad stuff, i also understand why a lot of people fast and go on strict diets for long amounts of time.. You are what you eat, if you eat shit, you become shit.

We did not evolve eating three meals per day morning, noon and night for many many generations. Breakfast was not the most important meal of the day.

Hunting and gathering, but eating when there was something to eat and going without the rest of the time, but still being able to function

Those that could not function; and gather didn’t stay around long.

Today we call it fasting, culturally normalized, habituated to eat as scheduled before all going to the fields, or all going to the factory?

Our bodies are quite capable of functioning having skipped a few meals. Humankind has been doing this for a long time up until the past few…

I always feel when autophagy occurs : it’s almost an ecstatic feeling, ketosis is not. If anyone wants to be assured of having autophagy but wants to eat: check out Prolon. It’s a 5 day food mimicking fast. They have figured out how to eat yet your body isn’t registering the food as such. It’s a packaged product with a Facebook group of support and a nutritionist if needed. About $175-200. Food is minimal but it’s worth it.

Joolz Worley

I've been modified alternate day fasting for over 13 years. Lost 63lbs the first year. Maintained that loss ever since.

I'm 66 now and have had no significant ailments. Rarely a cold, never had flu in all that time. And I need no prescription medication whatsoever ... despite my very best efforts to score free drugs once I reached 60

Fasting cured my GERD in 3 weeks and all my joint pains disappeared ... that could be attributed simply to weight loss though.

On 2009 the Scientist from USC did an study about fasting and the anti aging effects. On the study he applied chemotherapy to the lab rats, the difference was. He allowed one to eat before the chemo and the other fast with water only. He found the one on fasting very energetic without side effects vs the other. The conclusion was, the body during fasting is on “repair & clean mode” instead processing food. The immune systems is on High Level, clean the body and protects the good cells from the chemo but not the case on the cancer cells. On that time my wife had cancer and i contacted the scientist and i followed his protocol. Protocol 48-62hrs fasting only water before chemo and 24hrs after. This was on 2009, my wife is cancer free. I used to do the fasting at the same time with her. The first time 52hrs fasting with only water. Was tough the first time, isn’t for everybody. During that time the body heals and clean, i noticed on the texture of the skin, great sleep, reduction on blood pressure, and you go to the toilet daily like any other day. Was a surprise for me to see this news, because this study was done before.

Alex Harris

You can help autophagy along by eating the proper human diet.

Caglar Sevinchan

Fact check by chat gbt: The post is mostly accurate, but simplified.

The scientist shown is Yoshinori Ohsumi, who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discoveries of the mechanisms of autophagy.

What’s True

• Ohsumi identified key genes that control autophagy by studying yeast.

• Autophagy is a process where cells break down and recycle damaged components.

• His work greatly advanced understanding of diseases like cancer, Parkinson’s, and Alzheimer’s.

• Cells increase autophagy during nutrient starvation.

What’s Oversimplified

The claim that “the body eats its own damaged cells when it doesn’t receive food” is not quite precise.

Autophagy:

• Happens all the time, not only during starvation.

• Primarily recycles damaged proteins and organelles inside individual cells, not whole cells.

• Is more like a cellular recycling and cleanup system than the body “eating itself.”

It is different from:

• Apoptosis (programmed cell death)

• The body consuming whole cells as a survival strategy

Bottom Line

He did win the Nobel Prize for discovering how autophagy works.

Autophagy increases when nutrients are scarce.

But the viral wording makes it sound more dramatic than the biology actually is.

Diana Spring

Interesting. I have ITP, where something is destroying my platelets. I wonder if weight loss is a factor in something like this?
