Ways to do Intermittent Fasting

The rules for this diet are simple.

You need to decide on and cooperate to a 12-hour fasting every day.

This way is easier for beginners. Why you may ask? because the task is relatively small than the next method.

Add an extra 4 hours and you can do this method.

This is usually called the 16:8 method.

This trick makes you fast for 16 hours and eat food for 8 hours that can lessen you intake.

The 5:2 diet is where people eat healthy nutritious food for 5 days and fast for 2 days.

This method speaks for itself.

This day you eat next day you fast.

Just alternate you food intake and fasting period.

Staying hydrated. Drink lots of water and calorie-free drinks, such as herbal teas, throughout the day.
Avoiding obsessing over food. Plan plenty of distractions on fasting days to avoid thinking about food, such as catching up on paperwork or going to see a movie.
Resting and relaxing. Avoid strenuous activities on fasting days, although light exercise such as yoga may be beneficial.
Making every calorie count. If the chosen plan allows some calories during fasting periods, select nutrient-dense foods that are rich in protein, fiber, and healthful fats. Examples include beans, lentils, eggs, fish, nuts, and avocado.
Eating high-volume foods. Select filling yet low-calorie foods, which include popcorn, raw vegetables, and fruits with high water content, such as grapes and melon.
Increasing the taste without the calories. Season meals generously with garlic, herbs, spices, or vinegar. These foods are extremely low in calories yet are full of flavor, which may help to reduce feelings of hunger.
Choosing nutrient-dense foods after the fasting period. Eating foods that are high in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients helps to keep blood sugar levels steady and prevent nutrient deficiencies. A balanced diet will also contribute to weight loss and overall health.
