[quote=Anonymous]I really think some scientists came up with IF to make Americans stop eating 24 hours a day! Simple because a ton of people forgot the principles of how to live a good healthy life. I recall in my childhood that I had breakfast, went to school, came home when younger around noon, ate lunch around 1pm, then had dinner at 7pm. Dinner, in my country, was a small meal. Sandwich with yogurt, or open-face sandwich with one piece of lunch meat with butter or mayo on it. Then I moved to the States in my 20s and was busy with college, so I ate mostly at night and had a muffin during the day, and dinner became the main large meal of the day. All of a sudden, grandma's cooking was not there and one chicken did not feed our family of five, but I could have half a chicken for myself. People ate sandwiches with ton of lunch meat on it, and as a college student starving by 7pm, I had half a baguette with cheese and ham and mayo and I loved, loved it! But, heck, I was 20ish and could pig out with little to no weight gain. Guess what? At almost 50, I can't do that anymore! But, my body wants it regardless of my age and hormones, because it was used to it. IF comes in handy to curb those cravings. Today I am not eating, at all, since last night till tomorrow morning. I am not hungry at all, I ate plenty yesterday. So, for that sure, IF is good, because it thought me that I don't need such a large volume of food to be fine. But, for weight loss purposes, IF without calorie counting is useless. So, we now have scientists some real ones, some pseudo scientists hoping to teach people that you don't have to eat all day long, something we all knew even in the 80s, but forgot because we got addicted to sugar. So, if it helps with food addiction, go for it. [/quote]
