About this listen

Intermittent fasting (IF) isn’t just a diet; it’s a pattern of eating. It’s not about what you eat, but when. The idea is simple: you cycle between periods of eating and fasting. Popular methods include the 16/8 method, this involves fasting for 16 hours each day and eating all meals within an 8-hour window. On the 5:2 diet you eat normally for 5 days of the week and restricting calories to about 500–600 on the other 2 days. Finally, there is the Eat-Stop-Eat method that involves a 24-hour fast once or twice a week. What are the benefits of skipping meals ? What are the disadvantages ? How can you make it work for you ?
