Side effects and risks Studies have shown that excessive autophagy may kill cells in the heart, and scientists have linked excessive autophagy to some heart problems. Research has also found that inhibiting autophagy in mice could limit tumor growth and improve responsiveness to cancer treatment.

Read More »Autophagy is a vital process in which the body’s cells “clean out” any unnecessary or damaged components. Researchers have linked autophagy to several positive health effects. They also believe that a person might be able to induce autophagy by fasting. However, it is important to remember that much of the research into autophagy is in its early stages. This article looks at what autophagy is, its possible health effects, and its relation to fasting. It also looks at other factors that might induce it, and at some potential side effects. What is autophagy? Share on Pinterest Exercise may help induce autophagy. A person’s body contains trillions of cells. Over time, unwanted molecules can build up inside them; sometimes, this can damage some of their parts. A 2015 article published in Nature explains that autophagy is a natural process that responds to this problem. During autophagy, the cells remove these unwanted molecules and dysfunctional parts. Sometimes, autophagy destroys some of these molecules and parts. Other times, the cell recycles these parts into new components. The term “autophagy” derives from the Ancient Greek for “self-eating.” Health effects Research has linked autophagy with several health effects, but this cellular process is complex, so it can be challenging to draw conclusions. For instance, a recent 2019 study surveys existing research into autophagy and cancer. It finds that while autophagy can help to stall the development of cancer cells, it may also promote their growth, depending on the stage of the tumor. Researchers are also interested in the connection between autophagy and liver health. A 2020 review article explored the ways autophagy may help protect liver cells from drug- and alcohol-induced liver injury. Other research states that autophagy plays a role in many liver functions and could prevent the progression of several liver conditions, including: Wilson’s disease

However, researchers believe that there may be other ways to induce autophagy. Exercise Exercise also puts the body’s cells under stress. When people exercise, the components of their cells become damaged and inflamed. The authors of one paper explain that our cells respond to this problem with autophagy. This suggests that people might be able to use exercise to trigger autophagy. Indeed, there is evidence that exercise increases autophagy in human skeletal muscles. Curcumin Scientists have also suggested that curcumin intake triggers autophagy, at least in studies involving mice. Curcumin is a naturally occurring chemical found in the turmeric root, a popular spice around the world. For example, one animal study reported that curcumin-induced restoration of autophagy could protect against diabetic cardiomyopathy, a disorder of the heart muscles that affects people with diabetes. Another study in mice suggested that curcumin helped fight cognitive impairment due to chemotherapy by inducing autophagy in certain regions in the brain. Although these preliminary findings are promising, it is crucial to note that more research is necessary before scientists can draw any conclusions. In particular, scientists do not yet know if increasing curcumin intake can induce autophagy in humans. Side effects and risks It is important to distinguish between the risks of autophagy itself and the risks associated with people’s attempts to induce autophagy. Autophagy itself is not always positive. Studies have shown that excessive autophagy may kill cells in the heart, and scientists have linked excessive autophagy to some heart problems. Research has also found that inhibiting autophagy in mice could limit tumor growth and improve responsiveness to cancer treatment. This suggests that an increase in autophagy could theoretically worsen the outlook of somebody with existing cancer. According to the researchers, “Autophagy plays a complex role in cancer” and “[c]hallenges and opportunities remain to identify patients most likely to benefit from this approach.” Many people are interested in using fasting and calorie restriction to induce autophagy, but there is little evidence on the precise effect this has on humans.
