I No Longer Do Keto and Intermittent Fasting for Weight Loss as I’ve No Fat to Lose.
But I continue them for six other reasons: improving cellular, metabolic, hormonal, and mental health.
Purpose of the Article
This post highlights the health benefits of ketogenic diets and intermittent fasting other than weight loss or aesthetic reasons for some people.
I summarize the benefits of these regimens for cellular, mitochondrial, hormonal, neurological, and mental health. This post is not health advice. Instead, it is for information, inspiration, and awareness purposes.
Inspiration for the Post
Some subscribers who read my content about ketogenic diets and intermittent fasting mentioned that they lost sufficient weight and wondered whether they should continue with these regimens. I can’t give advice but share my experience to provide a helpful perspective.
Like these readers, both time-restricted eating and a ketogenic diet helped me lose unnecessary fat years ago. Now that I have no fat to lose, I don’t do keto and intermittent fasting for weight loss anymore.
