Intermittent Fasting or Time-Restricted Eating has many variations from consuming only liquids on specific days to severely reducing caloric intake on specific days to refraining from consuming foods during specific hours and consuming all your calories within a 6-to-8 hour window. This plan follows the latter method. Recent studies have shown that eating during shortened windows may help a body burn more fat, making it easier to lose weight and keep your weight at healthy level. Other benefits may include lower inflammation, lower risk of type 2 diabetes, lower risk of cancer, improved brain function, better heart health and improved immunity.
