16/8 method
The 16/8 method involves fasting for 16 hours and eating within an 8-hour window each day. This schedule is popular and relatively easy to follow, making it effective for weight loss and providing health benefits such as improved insulin sensitivity and reduced inflammation.
5:2 method
The 5:2 method consists of eating normally for 5 days a week and consuming very few calories (around 500-600) on the other 2 non-consecutive days. This intermittent fasting schedule has been shown to aid weight loss and offer health benefits such as improved metabolic health and reduced risk of chronic diseases.
Alternate day fasting
Alternate day fasting involves alternating between days of regular eating and days of fasting or consuming very few calories. This approach has been found to be effective for weight loss and may offer health benefits such as improved heart health and reduced markers of inflammation.
OMAD (One Meal a Day)
OMAD, or One Meal a Day, involves fasting for 23 hours and consuming all daily calories within a 1-hour eating window. While this schedule may be more challenging for some individuals, it has been shown to promote weight loss and may offer health benefits such as improved blood sugar control and enhanced mental clarity.
