According to a 2024 study on mice, intermittent fasting significantly reduced senescent cells in adipose tissue. But what does this mean for humans, and how long do you need to fast to get rid of zombie cells effectively through a process called autophagy? The duration depends on the type of fasting and your individual metabolism.

According to a landmark 2018 study, the flavonoid fisetin was identified as the most potent senolytic among a panel of natural compounds. This exciting discovery revealed fisetin as the specific chemical in strawberries that kills zombie cells, offering a promising avenue for healthy aging.

Cellular senescence, often dubbed 'zombie cells', contributes significantly to the aging process and various age-related diseases. While fasting does not completely eliminate these cells, evidence suggests it can significantly reduce their burden by activating cellular recycling pathways.
