Deep dives
Overview of Intermittent Fasting
Intermittent fasting is a defined time period in which individuals choose to eat and not eat. It can vary in duration and timing. The traditional advice of eating frequently throughout the day to stoke metabolism is contrary to our natural design. Our bodies thrive when we predominantly eat during daylight hours and consume the bulk of our food earlier in the day. This approach helps regulate insulin sensitivity and prevents the negative effects of frequent and carbohydrate-dense eating, which can impact overall health.
