Intermittent fasting is trendy now but has been around for a long time (eating 2 meals/day).. There are different approaches to intermittent fasting. One approach is time-restricted fasting where eating is limited to a 6-8 hour window per day. Heather Resek, RDN states, "In the study that Hana Kahleova, MD, PhD, conducted with diabetics, participants could choose to eat breakfast between 6am and 10am and lunch between noon and 4pm. Choose within those time frames, spacing meals five to six hours apart. Aim to eat at the same time every day since your body thrives on routines." It is best if you can start your day off with 2 cups of warm water on rising and eat breakfast within 2 hours of waking up. Remember to try to make breakfast your largest meal of the day. Avoid snacking. If hungry, drink a glass of water or unsweetened herbal tea. Research has shown some of the benefits to fasting include: weight loss, fat loss without losing muscle, better blood sugar regulation, lower blood pressure, lower triglycerides, reduced inflammation, and improved verbal memory. People doing intermittent fasting have also been found to have improved sleep, less belly fat and better self control. Do your research and see if this is for you. It has helped me.
