This is promoting intermittent fasting, right? Or am I taking it out of context?

This is promoting intermittent fasting, right? Or am I taking it out of context? It could be seen that way; I didn’t read that into it. From what I’ve heard of IF, eating is usually restricted to a smaller window than the 11 hours they called out for these studies. It also differs from IF in that those practicing IF choose the hours during which their eating window occurs whereas this article posits that eating starting early in the day with an eating window is better for weight loss and, perhaps, health than eating starting later in the day. |

This is a pretty good article. I do the 5:2 version of Intermittent Fasting. I have 2 days of the week that I eat relatively low calorie. The original 5:2 book said about 500 to 600 calories but the author Mosley later switched it to 800 calories. I find that very easy to do. I don't think there is a lot of magic in any of the IF versions. I do think that some of them work really well for some people just depending on your own preferences. 16:8 every day would be absolute torture for me. Also as some one who routinely goes to bed at 2:00 am I eat late at night almost every day. But the 5:2 version is really super easy for me and makes the entire week so easy for me. But -- that is me. Some people would find that restrictive and might binge afterwards. I don't so it works for me. It is all about finding what works for you personally. |

Good article but don’t agree with the lack of research, Krista Variday (?sp but author of ‘the every other day diet’ and featured in Michael Mosely’s BBC doco about IF) from what I can recall, has done research on human subjects for over a decade. The work of Jason Fung also not mentioned and nothing about autophagy, which is a major benefit of IF and won a particular research scientist the Nobel prize.
