Deep dives

Extended Fasting and Protein Sparing Modified Fasting for Weight Loss

For weight loss, protein sparing modified fasting is better than extended fasting. Extended fasting is more suitable for deep autophagy and is not optimal for sustainable weight loss. Protein sparing modified fasting is designed to protect lean body mass while promoting fat loss. It involves consuming mostly lean protein with minimal fat and carbohydrates. It provides an efficient way to create a caloric deficit while preserving muscle mass. Extended fasting may result in higher lean body mass loss and can be challenging to maintain long-term weight loss.
