Ep. 165 - Is intermittent fasting good for you? with Alexandra Brewster
Manage episode 244683949 series 1161288
Ancient hunter-gatherers didn’t have supermarkets, refrigerators or food available year round. As a result, humans have evolved to be able to function without food for extended periods of time.
Studies show that intermittent fasting can help you lose weight, improve health and perhaps even live longer. There are various methods and patterns of eating cycles that can be adopted when it comes to intermittent fasting. It's important that you seek advice from your healthcare professional before embarking on any drastic change in the way you eat.
