to eat or not to eat?: culinary medicine and intermittent fasting

To eat or not to eat, that is the question. As a strong believer of “let food by thy medicine,” Madhu D. Hardasmalani, MD of the Keck School of Medicine advocates using food as a method of mind-body healing and resilience building. Contrastingly, Valter Longo, PhD of the USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology runs a lab dedicated to the science of intermittent fasting for longevity.
