Intermittent Fasting
For most of your life you have probably always been told, “Breakfast is the most Important Meal of the day.” But what if that idea doesn’t always hold true? What if there was a newfound way of thinking that encourages skipping breakfast and can lead to better cognitive function, increased energy levels, and even weight loss. Let us break down Intermittent Fasting and how it works.
What is Intermittent Fasting (IF)?
Intermittent Fasting is a way of eating that cycles between periods of eating and fasting. IF does not focus as much on what you eat but when you eat. Fasting is not a diet but a pattern of eating and when done correctly can have many benefits for the body. Fasting is not for everyone and should be discussed with your doctor before you decide to try it for yourself.
