Intermittent fasting has been championed in recent years for its ability to aid in weight loss, reduce inflammation, and improve metabolic health. But fasting isn’t just another dieting fad; it is a time-tested strategy for healing the human body, and it comes with profound benefits. Today you’re going to learn the science behind fasting, including why it’s effective and its impressive benefits on human health.
On this episode, you’re going to learn about how simply shortening the amount of time you spend eating in a day can improve your health. We’re going to uncover the main drivers behind why most people have a lengthy eating window, its effect on our collective health, and how our culture contributes to overeating. We’re going to dive into how intermittent fasting can improve a variety of health markers, and a protocol you can use to integrate fasting into your lifestyle in a healthy way.
You’re also going to learn about key fasting principles, like autophagy, circadian clocks, and insulin levels. We’re going to cover the latest studies on fasting and its ability to reduce visceral fat, improve sleep quality, and so much more. I hope you enjoy this episode of The Model Health Show!
