So, you want to begin an intermittent fasting plan and embark on a leaner, healthier and longer life? You probably have already heard about this wildly popular health and fitness diet plan. Intermittent fasting continues to be one of the top Google trending diet searches of the year. The truth is that intermittent fasting programs are popular because they are much easier to maintain than traditional, highly restrictive, calorie-controlled diets. Scientific studies show that intermittent fasting can have extraordinary health benefits such as:
- Promoting weight and body fat loss (especially stubborn belly fat)
- Stabilizing blood sugar levels, reducing insulin resistance, and managing diabetes
- Increasing resistance to stress and suppressing inflammation
- Improving cardiovascular health including lowering resting heart rate, blood pressure and “bad” cholesterol levels
- Supporting brain health and improving memory
- Fighting premature aging
- Fostering a healthier gut
- Boosting psychological well-being
If you are ready to get on the intermittent fasting bandwagon, then here is the perfect step-by-step guide to following an intermittent fasting plan of your choice. Whether it’s the 16:8 method, the Warrior intermittent fasting plan; the Alternate Day intermittent fasting plan; the 5:2 method; or the Eat-Stop-Eat intermittent fasting plan. Too good to be true? No, but the trick―as with everything―is doing it in a safe and effective way and Intermittent Fasting For Dummies makes that easy, providing tried and true evidence-based advice and information about the five most popular methods and 40+ recipes that will suit any lifestyle or diet.
