Summary
Intermittent fasting involves periods of time with no food intake, followed by a feeding window. It has many benefits beyond weight loss, including fat burning, reducing blood glucose, increasing longevity, and protecting against neuro-degenerative diseases. The most popular method involves fasting for 14-16 hours and incorporating a high protein, lower carbohydrate diet during the feeding window for optimal results.
