THE HEALTH BENEFIT OF INTERMITTENT FASTING
Intermittent Fasting is when you give a healthy gap between your meals so that your body can have ample time to process what you have eaten and get absorbed into the the body accordingly. It is believed that after 13hours of intermittent fasting, Autophagy (Self Healing/Cell Regeneration) sets in. The body will naturally feed on bad proteins, tumors and any other bad fats will be taken out gradually. If one does this overtime, one will loose weight effortlessly and get healed of certain conditions (naturally).
The most popular Intermittent Fasting suggests are 16:8 or 18:6 or OMAD.
For faster result...do combine intermittent fasting with Cardio workout. And remember to seek medical advice from your doctor before embarking on this journey.
For me... personally, I lost 15kg from intermittent fasting only within one year. And when i added intensive 1hr cardio(gym) to it....for 2months, my Fatty Liver cleared off.
