Have you ever wondered to yourself what convenient and effective way can you engage in to reduce body fat? Well, intermittent fasting is one such way and if you are having second thoughts about it, this book is going to clear your doubts and guide you towards the lifestyle for a slim body! Intermittent fasting is a pattern of diet that focuses more on when to eat rather then what to eat. It is a pattern of food intake that shifts continuously between periods of fasting and regular eating. It is more of a lifestyle than a diet. Unlike most diets, Intermittent fasting is not concerned about calorie intake. In fact, there are no restrictions on what to eat and what to not. Women need to follow a modified form of this fasting technique to get results because female bodies are extremely sensitive to changes in calorie intake. There are some effects on women such as changes in the menstrual cycle and this is why women need to shorten the fasting period and lessen the number of fasting days. The most common techniques involve fasting on alternate days, daily 16 hour fasts or fasting for 24 hours two days each week. Intermittent fasting has many health benefits too such as reducing the risk of heart disease and diabetes, preserving muscle mass and improving psychological health. It also saves kitchen time as you have lesser meals to plan and cook. This fasting diet also leads to Autophagy in our body which is the natural function of a cell to discard all unnecessary dysfunctional components, much like recycling the cell of its useless elements.
