Autofagia [Autophagy]

I’ll admit: I approached *Autofagia* skeptical that yet another fasting-adjacent book could offer anything new. But Moore’s focus on *autophagy as a tool*—not just a byproduct of starvation—flipped the script for me. She breaks down how this process targets damaged cells, slows aging, and even tweaks mitochondrial efficiency, all while calling out the myths (no, you don’t need to fast for 72 hours to see benefits). The chapter on ‘autophagy blockers’—like certain amino acids and artificial sweeteners—had me auditing my pantry mid-listen. Ernesto Tissot’s performance is pitch-perfect for the material: his pacing is deliberate, almost professorial, but never monotonous. He nails the balance between authority and approachability, though I’ll dock half a point for his occasional over-enunciation of technical terms (it’s *lyso-some*, not *LY-so-some*). The audio production is flawless—no volume spikes or distracting breaths—just a clean, professional delivery that makes complex concepts stick. My only real critique? The book’s brevity. At 3 hours, it’s a sprint through dense material; a 30-minute ‘implementation guide’ appendix would’ve been gold. Still, for anyone tired of vague ‘eat less’ advice, this is the upgrade you didn’t know you needed.
