You’re perhaps wondering what is this right? well, let me explain it to you, it’s basically an eating plan that switches between eating and fasting on a regular basis. Research has shown that when fasting for prolonged periods of time can help you lose weight and help prevent or even reverse the risk of diseases. But how do you do it? and does it work?

Many diets tell you what to eat but intermittent fasting is when you eat make any sense yet? when intermittent fasting you can only eat in a dedicated time window, fasting for a number of hours in a day or eating one meal a few days a week can help your body burn fat.

how does it work?
There are many ways to start intermittent fasting, but they are all based on a selection of regular times of eating and fasting. For example, you eat only during an eight-hour window and fast for the remainder. Or you might decide to eat only one meal a day two days a week. There are so many different intermittent fasting plans.

After hours without food, the body exhausts its sugar stores and starts burning fat this is called metabolic switching also known as ketosis.
