Know your body and try fasting, just to give your organs a break!

I am a supporter of fasting even though I don’t do it as much as I should but the intermittent fasting sounds like a doable source for my body to have a break from eating.

It’s equally important what you eat, how much and how often. Intermittent Fasting will helping in controlling overeating by creating a window to eat and not to eat.

Recently, I read an article in the Los Angeles Times that referred to intermittent fasting. Cynthia Bello is a proponent of intermittent fasting as she eats only between 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. She spoke of being healthy and had a desired weight loss along with her husband who also lost weight eating only in the same eight hour window.

Fans of this eating style have boasted of busting weight lost plateaus and have staved off a host of chronic disease and conditions, including diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis and high blood pressure. Many people are afraid of the word fasting, alone. Proponents say it’s a simple hack for curbing the endless snacking and nighttime eating that can pack on the calories.
