Publisher's Synopsis
Many people think that the term "intermittent fasting" refers to a diet,
but this is not a diet. Instead, it is rather an eating habit that people
adopt that gives them guidance on when they should eat - this allows the
digestive system to take a break from processing and digesting food
continuously.
For many people, this type of dietary habit seems unhealthy. There are a
lot of people who are scared of adopting this pattern of eating because
they think that they would starve themselves. This, however, is a
common myth that has been told about intermittent fasting.
This particular dietary-scheduling technique has been used since ancient
times. Numerous studies have been carried out to determine how the
technique interacts with the human body, and several advantages have
already been noted.
An important fact that you should know when it comes to discussing this
method of eating is that, since it is not classified as a diet, it will not
decide the types of food that you will be eating. It is your role to decide
what you want to eat. A healthy, balanced diet that is filled with foods
high in essential nutrients will, of course, result in more benefits
compared to stuffing yourself with hamburgers and pizza as soon as the
clock strikes five, or whatever time your eating cycle starts. When opting
for fast foods and other food options that are very high in carbohydrates,
weight loss may not be a particular benefit that you experience when
following this diet.
