Intermittent Fasting and the Ketogenic Diet: The One/Two Punch for Lasting Weight Loss

In my new book Intermittent Fasting and the Ketogenic Diet, we combine two different eating styles together, and in doing so extract a synergy that individually they cannot create. While the keto diet is about what and how much you eat, intermittent fasting is about when you eat. By combining both together into a healthy-eating lifestyle, it is twice as effective. To get a better understanding of each eating style, let's look at each one individually. Intermittent fasting or IF has taken the health and dieting world by storm over the past few years, with more and more followers sharing their remarkable journeys to improved weight loss. While many people try intermittent fasting to help shed excess pounds, others use it because of its health benefits or because of how it helps to simplify their lifestyle. But what is intermittent fasting, and what exactly does it do to your body and mind? Those and many more questions are answered in this intermittent fasting portion of this guide. We explore the ins and outs of this way of eating, including what science tells us about how IF can help you lose weight, live longer, and think more clearly. Intermittent fasting is basically a way of eating that requires you to go for more extended periods between eating and to consume food only within a prescribed, shorter window of time. There is no specific eating plan with IF, and you can use it with any type of meal plan, including keto, whole-foods, clean eating, etc. Because it is not about WHAT foods you eat but instead WHEN you eat, it is not a traditional diet but could be looked at to improve your eating habits, no matter what you consume. There are many variations to intermittent fasting, which we explore more in-depth below, but the most common window is referred to as 16:8, which means 16 hours of fasting while eating all your food for one day in an eight-hour window. For example, not eating between 6pm until 10am the next morning. The ketogenic diet on the other hand is a low-carb/high-fat approach to eating has taken the country by storm and is creating quite a buzz for its ability to help you lose weight and burn fat. If you are considering a keto diet, then it is essential you learn not only the basics but the details about this approach to eating so that you can make the best choice for you. The keto part of this guide explores everything you want to know about ketogenic eating, including what you can and can't eat for ketosis. We explore the health benefits as well as the precautions you should know, and we share some tips to help you make the most of your keto diet experience. The ketogenic or keto diet is an eating plan that focuses on eating low-carb, high-fat foods. In addition to helping some people lose weight, it has other health benefits. Now imagine if you combine these two eating styles into one that gives you a one/two punch to a healthy AND lasting weight loss ...
