Intermittent fasting has been widely discussed in the fitness industry for the last 10 years. Intermittent fasting is simply going a period of time with very few to no calories. To say it another way, intermittent fasting is consolidating your calorie intake into an 8- to 10-hour feeding window. Intermittent fasting can be done every day or only a few days a week.

Alexia Laines, ContributorOctober 8, 2014The benefits to the dieting trend intermittent fasting has some people asking, is breakfast really the most important meal of the day?The diet industry capitalizes on selling weight loss seekers miracle pills or ‘cleanses’ that make bold claims that too often end up falling short.Intermittent fasting isn’t a trend diet but rather a lifestyle change. In order to achieve any result that you are looking for, you must fast for at least 16 hours with an eight-hour window to consume food. For example when practicing intermittent fasting, you should only eat from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., or whatever time period fits your schedule.“I have always read about how you have to eat a big meal in the morning,” said Samantha White, a senior at CSUEB, “but after reading about intermittent fasting, maybe its not.”The 16-hour fast is required for the eating pattern to be effective because it takes about eight hours for your body to burn your glycogen stores and allows your body to start burning fat.““Even though the fasting helps, it really comes down to what you eat.””— Marcelle LevineAccording to Dr.

The Pioneer : Intermittent fasting offers different lifestyles
The concept of the Reverse Taper Diets is still one of my favorite ideas.Without getting too technical, the concept was that you should be in your largest calorie deficit (eating the least amount of food) at the beginning of your diet, when you have the most fat to lose and thus the most fat available to be used as a fuel. Then, as you slowly lose fat you also slowly up your calories, ideally ending at a spot where you are eating maintenance level calories when you are at your leanest.The benefit of dieting in this manner is two fold: Firstly, you have much less risk of rebound weight gain. At the end of the diet, you would be eating exactly the amount you need to eat to maintain your new ideal body. Secondly, you would always have available energy so you could workout and so your energy levels didn’t diminish the further into the diet you lasted (lots of people complain about not having enough energy to workout by the end weeks of a traditional diet).The only problem that seems to come up with this approach is that people don’t like to fiddle with their calories, and they also have a very hard time increasing their calories if they’re seeing really good fat loss progress with the lower Calorie amounts.

Few things taught in the Bible have seen such an uptake recently as fasting. Open the pages of any fitness and health magazine and you’re bound to find the words “Intermittent Fasting” somewhere. So what is this all about?tl;dr – click to read summaryResearch shows that Intermittent Fasting has effects on insulin levels and the production of growth hormones in the body.

Call it Intermittent Fasting (IF), alternate day fasting, 5:2 Diet, 4:3 Diet, 18-hour Diet, Every Other Day Diet, Fast Diet or Starvation Diet, but going without food for a period of time each week continues to gain attention in the scientific community. Classic animal studies linking calorie restriction to longevity have suggested protection against obesity, type 2 diabetes, inflammation, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and reduced metabolic risk factors associated with cancer while improving markers of cardiovascular aging (1). Long-term daily caloric restriction is difficult to maintain in humans as it often induces weight re-gain and non-compliance.

Here’s what you need to know…• Intermittent fasting (IF) has limited uses in limited populations, but for many people it leads to less muscle, more body fat, and even disordered eating in the long term.• Fasted weight training, often part of intermittent fasting plans, is misguided and counterproductive.• If you follow many intermittent fasting diets to a T, you border on having or developing two different eating disorders.• To break the destructive habits created by failed IF plans, always eat breakfast, use workout nutrition, select quality foods, and learn to listen to your body.Let’s say I was approached by Kim Jong-un, the murderous North Korean dictator, and asked for dietary advice. Being a patriotic all-American girl, I’d of course give him the worst advice I could think of. My plan would be to provide a diet that fooled him into thinking it was working, but ultimately wrecked his health, made him miserable, and maybe even gave him an eating disorder as a bonus.Now, how would I do that? I’d probably tell him to starve all day, exercise in a fasted state, then eat a ton in the evening.

For even more great, FREE material, sign-up for BBA updates here ————————->I’ve been meaning to write about Intermittent Fasting (IF) for a while now, but just haven’t gotten around to it, but since it has quickly become a favorite way of eating for many people and myself, I figured I had to set some time aside to knock this one out. I’ve been following IF protocols on and off for about 2-years now, and definitely like some aspects of IF. Basically IF is extending the window (fast) in which you do not eat. Most people eat throughout the day, and typically stop eating around 7-8pm and start eating again the next day between 6-8am. So the typical fast for people is around 10-12 hours each day.
