Intermittent fasting offers different lifestylesInfographic | Evelin SaavedraIntermittent fasting consists of a 16-hour fast followed by 8 hours of eating. 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 more you eat, the less flavor; the less you eat, the more flavour. ~ Chinese proverb Click to tweetI never thought I would try something such as Intermittent Fasting IF.I first heard about it from my brother-in-law, then a client mentioned it to me, and then I read Kate Langbroek’s article in the paper.So, after some research, I decided to give IF a try to see whether it would increase energy levels and mental clarity, as others had claimed. I also wanted to see how it would affect my relationship with food, including understanding my hunger cues. It was an experiment.Before I dive into what I discovered, let me first share the IF method I used.

When I first found, and started Leangains Intermittent Fasting, I was still looking for *the* diet. You know what I mean. The diet to end all diets.Instead I found something better.I didn’t need another diet. What I really needed was an education.When I finally got an education in nutrition (through a combination of blogs, textbooks, Physiology class, and lots of reading about research), I finally became free from “dieting”.  You can see the evolution of my education in my 2 previous posts on this blog here and here, about my experiences with Leangains and Intermittent fasting, from November 2011 to now.This post is not to tell you anything about intermittent fasting, Leangains or how to “diet”.If you are still confused, dogmatic, frustrated, searching or any other adjective connected to what you eat or look like, that would compel you to read a diet blog post; you are uneducated.Don’t be offended.

The every other day diet (Alternate day fasting)Written by Zoë on January 16, 2014 – 0 CommentsCategories: Dieting, Media comments, Other Diets A UK TV programme (Monday 6th August 2012) generated much interest about Calorie Restriction and Intermittent Fasting. The programme was a Horizon documentary, by Michael Mosley, called “Eat, Fast and Live Longer” (The comma is very important!)I did a review of the programme, so you’ll be able to see what it was about by reading this – it will be long gone from iplayer.

If you read health magazines or watch shows that discuss weight loss, you have probably heard the new craze of Intermittent Fasting (IF). Basically, there is no real definition for IF, and many health experts, doctors, and book authors define it differently. I, personally, define fasting as not eating or drinking anything besides water for at least 24 hours.I am okay with people fasting since I think it is a natural process that the human body is meant to deal with. A lot of how our body stores fat and how the metabolism works is attributed to our genetic makeup tracing it back to our ancestors. These people typically went through days where they consumed adequate calories, then some days where they had very few calories.

Unquestionably, the coolest diet hack to come across my radar in the past few years is a technique known as Intermittent Fasting (IF).  IF has a small, but cult-like following that is growing in numbers at an impressive rate.  If would probably be growing even faster if it wasn’t so completely puzzling for most people that encounter it.  To the uneducated, intermittent fasting probably doesn’t look that dissimilar from simple starvation

If I had to lose weight with maximum speed and I had minimum time (either daily or time to weight loss target…say, a wedding) I would do four things: 1) Intermittent Fasting 2) Tabata whole-body sprints: Kettlebells, Club-bells, or Bodyweight (say, Burpees) four times a week, 20 seconds work/10 seconds rest, for 20 minutes. 3) Drink a gallon of water a day. 4) Journal my dreams, thoughts, emotions, and actions. About five years ago, I started Intermittent fasting, after accidentally encountering the topic while researching caloric restriction. It is the easiest, simplest, most effective means of weight control I’ve ever heard of

About the benefits of Intermittent fastingA report by Peter Bowes from BBC News in Los Angeles today describes how his body responded to a fasting diet which he followed as part of a clinical trial. Each month he would eat very little for five days in a row. He not only felt more alert during these fasting days but he also saw improvements in his blood pressure.“Clinical tests showed that during the diet cycles my systolic blood pressure dropped by about 10%, while the diastolic number remained about the same.
