Cameron Mathison: “Now, let's discuss Hollywood's fast fix to losing weight. When I say fast, I mean fasting.” Jorge Cruise: “For me, intermittent fasting is probably the most effective technique I've ever discovered — and it's the hottest thing in Hollywood, where everyone from Hugh Jackman to J.Lo is doing this. I've worked with Steve Harvey and Brooke Burke — she's in better shape at 46 than she was in her 20s — and I had the privilege of even working with Khloé Kardashian for Revenge Body. My career started with Oprah 20 years ago.” Cameron: “People hear the word fasting and just freak out. What is intermittent fasting?” Jorge: “You eat for an eight-hour window and fast for 16. It's the most effective way — you can drop up to a pound a day if you do this.”
It was an honor to have Cameron Mathison join me at my gym in Malibu to explore what I call Hollywood's "fast fix" — no pun intended — for transforming health in midlife. Cameron has spent decades in front of the camera, first on daytime television and now as one of entertainment's most recognized journalists. Looking his best isn't vanity for him. It's his job.
What struck me was how deeply he connected with the science behind intermittent fasting and time-restricted eating. He wanted to understand why Hollywood has quietly embraced it as the most effective method for burning belly fat, boosting energy, and adding healthy years to a busy life.
Men like Cameron — constantly on set, constantly being photographed — don't have time for complicated plans. They need something that works. Fasting does. And as Cameron said himself, "Jorge is Hollywood's fast fix to losing weight."
