David Sinclair, a molecular biologist and professor of genetics at Harvard University, told Men's Health magazine in a piece published Sept 7 that eating three meals a day is 'crazy' and that fasting does not imply malnutrition as long as the person gets adequate vitamins and minerals.^[1] The read here is that Sinclair's remarks, while not a clinical trial or guideline, carry weight because of his prominence in aging research and his public influence on dietary habits. He did not specify a fasting protocol or define what constitutes adequate micronutrient intake. The statement appears to separate the concept of malnutrition-typically defined by energy or protein deficiency-from micronutrient sufficiency, a distinction that dietitians may find incomplete because malnutrition also encompasses micronutrient deficiencies. In a separate development, Thanh D. Hoang, DO, MACP, FACE, professor of medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, argues in a commentary published in AACE Endocrinology and Diabetes that endocrinologists should serve as the 'clinical anchor' for thyroid eye disease care.^[2] The commentary does not address Sinclair's remarks or fasting.
