Curious About Fasting But Don’t Know Where to Start?
Intermittent fasting is the term given to a range of diets based on the principles of intermittent fasting and translates into either incorporating low calorie days into your weekly schedule or not eating for especially long periods of time.
Intermittent fasting programs are among the most popular diets of recent years, largely as they are associated with a range of health benefits and slow but sustainable weight loss over time.
Anecdotally, fasting programs are popular compared to more rigid programs that require constant caloric restriction because fasting regimes can be relatively flexible, allowing dieters to choose the best option for them, and opt for either occasional strict caloric restriction or time based (as opposed to calorie based) eating.
