Compared to any other health supplement, research on intermittent fasting is scarce. After all, there is little money in telling people to eat less often. The bit of data that exists is very clear, however: intermittent fasting (IF) is extremely healthy no matter what your health goals.Most people have found intermittent fasting as a method of losing fat and gaining muscle. Indeed, there are tremendous hormonal changes involved with intermittent fasting that can allow practitioners to gain lean mass, but the anti-aging and disease prevention aspects are as important if not more so

Intermittent Fasting – Not My Fight | Brad Pilon’s ‘Eat Blog Eat’ The truth about the intermittent fasting is bad for you movement is this: There are a group of people who have made millions of dollars convincing you that weight loss has to be complicated, and that you absolutely need their expertise to cut through this confusion to create the ideal weight loss diet. For these people there is a large financial benefit to attacking IF. There are also people who are genuinely curious about IF and have found some sort of information in the scientific community that troubles them, so they decided to broadcast it and their ideas to the world. I don’t mind this second group, since they help expand our understanding of how IF works.

Tue 28-05-2013Intermittent Fasting and the Fast DietThe question that I am being asked more than any other at the moment is ‘what do you think about the fast diet?’ For anyone not in the know, the fast diet (also know as the 5:2 diet) is where you fast for two days out of every week. On your fast days women are allowed 500 calories and men are allowed 600 calories. For the rest of the week you can eat and drink as you please.The diet rose to popularity based on this BBC panorama episode called Eat, Fast and Live Longer. The presenter has then taken this further by creating a diet book, a cookbook and website. Its popularity is now huge and fully deserves the title of ‘the new Atkins diet’

Have you reached a plateau and don’t know what to try next? Would you like to get the benefits of an hour-long cardio workout in a fraction of the time?If any of these raised an eyebrow, high intensity interval training, or HIIT, may be for you.HIIT, involves alternating bursts of high-intensity effort, reaching close to 90 percent maximum heart rate, with lower intensity recovery periods to achieve improved fitness in a shorter amount of time than through steady-state training.
