Some claim it has helped them lose weight, improve their health and simplify their lifestyle.<\/p><p>Some studies show that short-term and intermittent fasting can help lose weight and improve brain and heart health, and in some studies, it is also linked to better cognitive function and digestion.<\/p><p>Fasting as an eating pattern is not new. People have been fasting &#8211; taking longer breaks between meals &#8211; for simple lack of food or religious reasons.<\/p><p>In this article, let&#8217;s look at what exactly fasting is. How does fasting affect our bodies? What benefits does it bring us and what are the possible side effects and health risks?<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h2>What is fasting or Intermittent Fasting?<\/h2><p>Intermittent fasting is a pattern of eating that involves regular periods of fasting and eating according to a set schedule.<\/p><p>Intermittent fasting does not specify how much or which foods you should or should not eat, but only when you should eat.<\/p><p>The underlying idea is that if we eat only during a certain period each day, rather than all day, we are more likely to take in fewer calories.<\/p><p>Especially nowadays in the Internet and social networking age, when it is becoming more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight.<\/p><p>In the past, when there was no internet, computers and smartphones, television programmes ended around 23.00 and people stopped eating because they went to bed.<\/p><p>Portions were also much smaller and people moved more.<\/p><p>Now, sedentary lifestyles are the mainstream, the Internet, television and other entertainment options are available 24\/7 and this means that you can sit all day and most of the night and &#8211; eat.<\/p><p>Fasting is not, in fact, a diet, but an attempt to reduce calorie intake by limiting the periods of eating.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h2>The most popular types of intermittent fasting<\/h2><h3>Eating regime 16\/8<\/h3><p>Fasting each day for 16 hours and eating whatever you like for 8 hours. During fasting you can drink water, sugar-free coffee and other zero-calorie drinks that may help reduce hunger.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>Eating regime 5:2<\/h3><p>Eat as before 5 days a week, but limit calorie intake to 500-600 Kcal for 2 days (women are advised to eat 500 calories, men 600).<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>Eating regime Eat\/Don&#8217;t eat<\/h3><p>24-hour fasting once or twice a week. Water, sugar-free coffee and other calorie-free drinks are allowed during the fast, but other types of food are not.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>Eating regime Fasting every other day<\/h3><p>Eat normally one day, the next day eat nothing, the next day eat, the next day eat nothing and so on. There are different versions of this method. Some of them allow take in about 500 calories on fasting days. Only water, sugar-free coffee and other calorie-free drinks are allowed during the fast.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>Eating regime Soldiers&#8217; diet<\/h3><p>Eat small amounts of raw fruit and vegetables during the day and one huge meal at night. In other words, fast all day and eat once at night. This eating regime is quite similar to the <a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/diets\/paleo-diet\/\">Paleo diet<\/a> &#8211; you eat mostly whole, unprocessed foods.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>Eating regime Spontaneous skipping of meals<\/h3><p>Occasional skipping of meals &#8211; essentially intermittent but spontaneous fasting.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h2>What happens to us during fasting?<\/h2><p>From around the 12th hour of fasting, the glycogen reserves in our muscles and liver run out.

Pain is typically mild to moderate and is caused by:<\/p><ul><li>Prolonged fasting can cause a drop in blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) and this can lead to headaches as glucose is the main source of energy for the brain.<\/li><li>Insufficient fluid intake can lead to dehydration, which is a common cause of headaches.<\/li><li>People who regularly consume caffeine may reduce their caffeine intake during fasting, which can also cause headaches.<\/li><li>Fasting can alter the balance of electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium), which are essential for normal brain function.<\/li><li>Headaches can also be caused by psychological factors such as <a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/what-is-preventing-from-losing-weight\/how-tress-affect-our-body-and-mind\/\">stress<\/a> and hunger.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p><strong>Lightheadedness<\/strong> (sometimes fainting) during fasting is also a common side effect, especially when standing up quickly (<a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/diseases\/9385-low-blood-pressure-orthostatic-hypotension\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">orthostatic hypotension<\/a>).<\/p><p>There may also be general weakness and a feeling of unsteadiness or visual disturbances, for example, a person may see &#8216;spots&#8217; (<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Scotoma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">scotomas<\/a>).<\/p><p>Causes are similar to those of fasting headaches:<\/p><ul><li>Lightheadedness, like headaches, can be caused by low blood sugar. The brain needs a constant supply of glucose and a drop in glucose can cause lightheadedness and even fainting.<\/li><li>Lightheadedness can also be caused by insufficient water intake, which can lead to a decrease in blood volume and blood pressure.<\/li><li>Prolonged fasting can cause a drop in blood pressure, especially when standing up quickly (orthostatic hypotension).;<\/li><li>Electrolyte imbalance can interfere with normal cell function.<\/li><li>Low energy levels (due to reduced calorie intake) can also cause weakness and lightheadedness.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>3 digestive disorders<\/h3><p>Indigestion, diarrhoea, nausea and <a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/miscellaneous\/bloating-gas-in-the-stomach-and-how-to-reduce-bloating\/\">bloating<\/a> may also occur during fasting.<\/p><p><strong>Indigestion<\/strong> is characterised by symptoms such as:<\/p><ul><li>A burning sensation or discomfort in the upper abdomen.<\/li><li>Heartburn (burning sensation in the chest caused by acid reflux).<\/li><li>Bloating (even when eating very little).<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p>Causes include:<\/p><ul><li>Even when the stomach is empty, it continues to produce acid, which can irritate the stomach lining.<\/li><li>The transition from fasting to periods of eating can interfere with the normal digestive process, causing discomfort.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p><strong>Diarrhoea<\/strong> or watery stools, pain or cramps in the lower abdomen associated with bowel movements.<\/p><p>Causes:<\/p><ul><li>After prolonged fasting, large or fatty meals may overload the digestive system.<\/li><li>Following prolonged fasting, too rapid intake of large amounts of food can cause rapid changes in fluid and electrolyte levels.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p><strong>Nausea<\/strong> as a general feeling of abdominal discomfort or vomiting (especially if food is consumed too quickly).<\/p><p>Causes:<\/p><ul><li>During prolonged fasting, the body goes into a state of ketosis, which in some people manifests as nausea.<\/li><li>Without food to neutralise stomach acid, it can irritate the stomach lining and cause nausea.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p><strong>Increased gas production<\/strong> causes bloating and a feeling of tightness or discomfort in the abdomen.<\/p><p>Causes:<\/p><ul><li>After fasting, the digestive system may react sensitively to the sudden appearance of food.<\/li><li>After fasting, gas in the intestines can also be caused by foods previously processed easily.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>4 Irritability and other mood changes<\/h3><p>During periods of severe calorie restriction or fasting, blood sugar levels can drop and cause:<\/p><ul><li>Irritability;<\/li><li>Anxiety;<\/li><li>Decrease in ability to concentrate.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p>Why does this happen?<\/p><ol><li>During fasting, blood sugar levels can drop and &#8211; because the brain is so dependent on glucose &#8211; low blood glucose levels can cause irritability, confusion and difficulty concentrating.<\/li><li>Hormonal changes occur during fasting:<ul><li>Fasting can increase levels of the stress hormone cortisol, which can contribute to feelings of stress, anxiety and irritability.<\/li><li>Fasting changes levels of hormones that regulate hunger. The hunger hormone ghrelin increases appetite and may affect mood, leading to irritability. Leptin (the hormone &#8220;responsible&#8221; for satiety) levels decrease also contributing to mood swings.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Fasting can affect levels of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/NBK539894\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">neurotransmitters<\/a> such as serotonin and dopamine, which are linked to mood regulation.

if you eat more than your body uses, you will gain weight no matter what you do, when, what and how you eat.<\/p><p>Like any weight loss diet, fasting focuses on consuming fewer calories per day.<\/p><p>In other words &#8211; if you can&#8217;t restrict yourself in any other way &#8211; eat for example only 6 hours a day and you will almost certainly consume fewer calories in those 6 hours than you did eating the whole day.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p>Taking in small amounts of calories\/nutrients throughout the day &#8211; exactly when you need them &#8211; will definitely have a greater effect, because the amount of calories you take in is easier to control &#8211; you take in exactly as many calories, nutrients, minerals, vitamins, enzymes &#8230; as your body needs (no unspent calories to turn into fat).<\/p><p>But.<\/p><p>If fasting as a method of calorie restriction appeals to you, I would recommend a 5:2 eating regime for weight loss, or a 6\/18 regime (eating between 8 am and 2 pm) alternating every other week with a weight-maintaining 8\/16 regime (eating between 8 am and 4 pm).<\/p><p>If you have an eating window in the first half of the day, the calories you consume will be more likely spent before you go to bed (when metabolism slows down and energy expenditure drops significantly).<\/p><p>In other words &#8211; you are less likely to have unspent calories that your body will turn into fat.<\/p><p>And.<\/p><p>Although the advertisers of intermittent fasting do not restrict the type of food consumed, I would still recommend avoiding at least fast food, sausages and products containing palm oil.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p>Eat tasty, eat balanced and &#8211;
