What Is Intermittent Fasting?
Intermittent fasting is a method of eating that focuses on when you eat rather than restricting specific food types. This approach limits your meals to a specific window of time during the day, allowing your body to alternate between periods of eating and fasting.
Rather than constant grazing or late-night snacking, intermittent fasting gives your body the opportunity to rest and reset. This can enhance insulin sensitivity, support fat metabolism, and regulate hunger hormones—all essential for maintaining a healthy weight and energy balance.
Why Meal Timing Matters
Your body operates on a circadian rhythm that influences many physiological processes, including digestion, metabolism, and hormone regulation. Aligning your eating patterns with your internal clock may significantly improve how your body processes food.
Eating earlier in the day, for example, when your metabolism is more active, may help reduce the risk of elevated blood sugar and fat storage. On the other hand, eating late at night may interfere with sleep and lead to weight gain over time. Through intermittent fasting, you allow your body to function more efficiently, using food as fuel during your active hours and promoting repair during fasting periods.
Long-Term Benefits Of Intermittent Fasting
When practiced consistently and safely, intermittent fasting may lead to:
-
