Most motherboards should have support, but you can double-check the memory QVL for each board to see for ECC UDIMMs to use. ECC support should be based on the AMD IMC (on chip) and AGESA and should work with all Zen CPUs except for the cons

Per the article, 14h is actually what’s being spoken about: “There are different ways to go about it, but I advise patients to omit either dinner or breakfast, so that they don’t ingest any food for at least 14 hours at a stretch.” This sho

To increase appetite you’ll want to increase your hunger hormones (ghrelin in particular), and minimize your satiety hormones (leptin, cck, peptide yy etc). Sugar has the least satiety of any of the macros (protein has the highest satiety)

Ghrelin is also entrained and pulsatile - you get hungry when you’re used to eating, and then the signal goes away whether you’ve eaten or not (until your next meal time). It also decreases in severity over time, which is why anyone who h
