INTERMITTENT FASTING
As we age we encounter several metabolic conditions. Some of these conditions are controllable through diet and proper exercise. There’s one hack that has changed my life!
Intermittent Fasting.
Simply put it’s eating within a window of time. Based on the time of not eating you can create something called… Autophagy. Autophagy is the body’s way of cleaning out damaged cells, in order to regenerate newer, healthier cells, it’s a way to FIGHT BACK against the aging process.
How to start intermittent fasting.
Mondays and Thursdays are the best days to start. More than 2 days per week when you start is too stressful.
I like Monday as a good start day as most people eat too much on the weekend.
On your first day set a time. Maybe you want to go until 3 pm (or earlier if that’s too long).
You can have water, tea, coffee but no other drinks. No diet soda.
Be aware of how you feel. If you have any medical issues, it’s always best to check with DR first.
Make sure not to binge when you break your fast.
You might fail on your first few tries. Give it time your body will adapt.
You might succeed and then realize how good you feel and want to do it every day. Refrain from the everyday fasting when you start. You’ll crash and burn after a few days.
