[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is great about fasting is that it is healthy for you, but might not be the best weight loss tool. It builds up AGE which is very beneficial to our bodies. Even Drs who are against fasting as a weight loss tend to agree that it has health benefits for certain health conditions. For losing weight the benefit, imo, is that it might make it easier to say no to food, rather than becoming some starving monk on Mount Sinai or similar. People who have tried it will attest that you are actually not hungry after 24 hours of fasting. I am not sure if there is much health benefit for 16:8. But, if you have insulin issues and are not yet on insulin shots it might save you from becoming diabetic. That is what I have learned from my research about it and trying it on and off. It is improving my muscle aches and headaches and breathing issues. But, to each their own. For people going on and on about it being a disorder, it might only be a disorder if a person already has eating issues.[/quote] This is interesting to hear. I've been doing 16:8 for 2 weeks now and the scale hasn't budged at all. I guess I'm not really eating fewer calories, I'm just eating them within a shortened period of time. [/quote]
