Annotation

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 As you pass through your thirties and forties, you begin to notice changes in your body. You're gaining weight and experiencing cravings. You're feeling old before your time, and just plain off.#2 There are many bad dogmas in the intermittent fasting community. Don't waste your time or energy on them. Focus on what's important: healthy food, when you eat it, and how much.#3 The idea that eating many small meals throughout the day will increase your metabolism and keep you from getting hungry is completely false. Some proof: investigators at the University of Ottawa found that on a restricted-calorie diet, there was no weight-loss benefit to splitting calories among six meals rather than three.#4 Intermittent fasting is eating less frequently, and within a specific period of time designated for meals. It is a choice that can improve your health, well-being, and hormones.
