Intermittent fasting triggers interorgan communication to suppress hair follicle regeneration Intermittent fasting halts hair follicle regeneration by activating communication between adrenal glands and niche adipocytes, which in turn selectively induces apoptosis of hair follicle stem cells but not epidermal stem cells in the skin.

OK so other than the fact that I hate being hungry, this is another reason to avoid intermittent fasting.

Thrilled to share one of our biggest discoveries: “Inceptor binds to and directs insulin towards lysosomal degradation in beta cells”.
