I think I would be the right person to talk about Intermittent Fasting, since I have actually done it and experienced all its effects.
I was doing Intermittent Fasting a while back and found that it does work! Maybe for some people it might not work since all of us have different genetics.
I have seen all over the internet that, people think Intermittent Fasting is a joke and its bad and it makes u starve and its bad. But that is not really the case. Traditional diet plans are based on the principle of eating small meals every 2 hours, so people think doing a 16 hour fast is completely mental. I thought the same when I read 16 Hours without food! That is ridiculous!!!
But the I later realized, I have been doing more or less 12 hour fast unknowingly, so all I had to do is push my breakfast time a bit late and the dinner time a bit early. So there it was a 16 hour Fast and 8 hour Eating window.
If you see, out of the 16 hours fast, you spend 8 hours sleeping, so it breaks down to 8 hour eating window, 8 hour sleep and 8 hour fast. Which is very much manageable.
There have been studies on Intermittent Fasting and there has been proof of Intermittent Fasting actually working, whereas there is no proof of the eating every 2 hours method of actually working.
If I start stating the benefits of IF then I would be purely quoting Wikipedia.
The Fat cells in our body cannot burn fat at the same time as storing food, so restriction to the 8 hours of eating gives the body a clear digestive track for the remaining 16 hours to burn off the stored glucose and fats for energy.
Its very important to drink plenty of water during the fasting phase. Alternatively you can also drink 0 calorie drinks like black coffee or green tea without sugar or maybe even diet coke if you cant control yourself.
I did intermittent fasting purely for fat loss, I have not tried it for bulking.
Its necessary to keep the protein intake up to the mark so that you don't end up losing muscle tone. Always remember to have a high protein breakfast.
I ended up losing 3% body fat, which was 15.5% to 12.5%. When you go for long hours without eating anything, the insulin levels in your body drop. And Growth Hormone levels increase. Insulin and Growth hormone can not coexist at the same time in your body. And as we know, we need growth hormone more.
and Intermittent Fasting does precisely that. It improves your Growth Hormone levels and also regulates Insulin. So lesser chances of getting diabetes.
Intermittent Fasting is not a DIET, its a way of eating food. I referred to this book called Renegade Diet by Jason Ferreugia. It helped to to decide what to eat when to eat. This book has all kinds of diet standard and non-standard diet combinations.
And also they have mentioned what exactly Jason Ferrugia did about his diet.
