You claimed that eating three meals and snacks prevents autophagy. The reality of starvation-independent autophagy and mitophagy occurring in the fed state - as supported by multiple citations including your own - shows that to be false. Hence, fasting is not necessary for mitophagy to occur, which will still occur when eating three meals and snacks.
Hence, an argument that fasting would "absolutely" be beneficial for long Covid because autophagy wouldn't occur otherwise is false.
That's the issue. It's been addressed. Repeatedly.
As for your newfound obsession with insulin and mTOR, I'm sure you're not daft enough to be claiming that being fed prevents something that occurs when fed, so it has literally no bearing on the above. You don't need to understand why it still occurs. You just need to know that it does.
I'm naturally going to respond to misrepresentations of what I've said, for example, your assertion that I haven't addressed the pertinent issue. I'm also not a fan of misinformation.
The problem there is the posting of those, not the responding. So again, I'd suggest knocking it off.
