Lose weight and belly fat, prevent disease, boost metabolism, and live longer!
So,
you want to begin an intermittent fasting plan and embark on a leaner,
healthier and longer life? You probably have already heard about this
wildly popular health and fitness diet plan. Intermittent fasting
continues to be one of the top Google trending diet searches of the
year. The truth is that intermittent fasting programs are popular
because they are much easier to maintain than traditional, highly
restrictive, calorie-controlled diets. Scientific studies show that
intermittent fasting can have extraordinary health benefits such as:
- Promoting weight and body fat loss (especially stubborn belly fat)
- Stabilizing blood sugar levels, reducing insulin resistance, and managing diabetes
- Increasing resistance to stress and suppressing inflammation
- Improving cardiovascular health including lowering resting heart rate, blood pressure and “bad” cholesterol levels
- Supporting brain health and improving memory
- Fighting premature aging
- Fostering a healthier gut
- Boosting psychological well-being
If
you are ready to get on the intermittent fasting bandwagon, then here
is the perfect step-by-step guide to following an intermittent fasting
plan of your choice. Whether it’s the 16:8 method, the Warrior
intermittent fasting plan; the Alternate Day intermittent fasting plan;
the 5:2 method; or the Eat-Stop-Eat intermittent fasting plan. Too good
