16/8 method
This method involves fasting for 16 hours and eating within an 8-hour window each day. It is one of the most popular and sustainable fasting schedules for weight loss.
5:2 method
The 5:2 method involves eating normally for 5 days a week and restricting calorie intake to 500-600 calories on the other 2 non-consecutive days. This approach can be effective for weight loss and is relatively easy to follow.
Alternate day fasting
Alternate day fasting involves alternating between days of regular eating and days of fasting. On fasting days, calorie intake is restricted to 500-600 calories. This method may be challenging for some individuals but can lead to significant weight loss.
24-hour fasting
This method involves fasting for a full 24 hours once or twice a week. It can be an effective way to create a calorie deficit and promote weight loss, but it may not be suitable for everyone. It's important to stay hydrated and consume nutrient-dense foods during non-fasting periods.
