Fasting for 14-16 hours daily within a time-restricted eating window provides benefits, including clearing protein aggregates.

“And the thing that's so interesting is this repair process being, you know, in the fasting state and, you know, happening during the fasting state. And, like you said, maybe there's a threshold where, you know, it's like obviously if you're fasting for 14 or 16 hours every single day because you're eating within a time-restricted eating window, that's also going to have benefits. And now the threshold may be...you know, you may have less of those benefits, but you're not cleaning up. You know, you don't have widespread apoptosis happening where you're killing off all the damaged cells, but you may be clearing up some protein aggregates or something, you know, every day sort of on this steady state sort of level, which also is extremely important.”
