INTERMITTENT FASTING (IF) is a diet regimen that cycles between brief periods of fasting with either no food or significant calorie reduction and periods of unrestricted eating. It is promoted to change body composition through loss of fat mass and weight and to improve markers of health that are associated with disease such as blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Prolonged very low calorie diets can cause physiological changes that cause the body to adapt to the calorie restriction and therefore prevent further weight loss. IF addresses this issue by cycling between a low calorie level for a brief time followed by normal eating which may prevent these adaptations. However research does not consistently show that IF is superior to continuous low calorie diets for weight loss efficiency. IF would be difficult for someone who eats every few hours (e.g. snacks between meals) and for those with conditions that require food at regular intervals due to metabolic changes caused by their medications such as diabetes. Prolonged periods of food deprivation or semi-starvation places one at risk for overeating when food is reintroduced and may foster unhealthy behaviors such as an increased fixation on food. People who typically eat one or two meals a day or do not eat for long stretches of time may show better compliance with this type of regimen.It is UNCLEAR that IF is superior to other weight loss methods in regards to amount of weight loss biological changes compliance rates and decreased appetite. Therefore strong recommendations on IF for weight loss CANNOT be made at this time.#Jabali #Fitness #Health #Wellness #Nutrition #Diet #Weightloss #Fatloss #StrengthTraining #Cardio #Power #Muscle #FitnessInDXB #Dubai #UAE #DubaiDowntown #DubaiBusinessbay #DubaiMarina #BurjKhalifa #Coach #PersonalTrainer #Blogger #Primal #Functional #Kenya #Africa #StrengthAndConditioning #Muscle #IntermittentFasting
