Misconceptions of Intermittent Fasting
Intermittent fasting is often mistakenly categorized solely as a weight loss diet, which can lead to unrealistic expectations and poor outcomes. Historically, fasting has been practiced for spiritual reasons and not primarily for aesthetic goals. This misconstruction leads many individuals to approach fasting with the mindset of self-hate and dissatisfaction with their bodies, which can result in a cycle of emotional eating and dietary rebellion. The focus should shift towards using fasting as a tool for self-reflection and health improvement rather than a quick fix for weight loss.
