About the expert
Focus: Human physiology of fasting, nutrient timing, and time-restricted eating
James Betts is a metabolic physiology researcher whose work focuses on the human physiology of the fasted state, nutrient timing, and time-restricted eating. He emphasizes the differences between human and rodent metabolism in fasting research.
Why this matters
Academic researcher focused on energy balance, metabolism, and human feeding behavior. Tends to emphasize cautious interpretation of fasting claims and stronger reliance on human trial data over mechanistic extrapolation.
