Do you struggle to lose weight and keep it off, without damaging your metabolism? Are you tired of carefully controlling your portions at meals? Four years ago, I would have answered yes to all three, and if you're anything like me, then the contents of this book may be the solution. After three years of personal experience with intermittent fasting, needless to say, it changed my life. The Fasted Lifestyle has been carefully developed and written over the course of two years.

Not only have I explored all corners of the research, but I've applied this knowledge myself, trailing, testing, and experimenting, so you don't have to. I can also say with confidence that the content of this book is a completely trusted source of information, and the 44 cited scientific journals and books support this. So, what can you expect to find inside the book? - Exactly what intermittent fasting is, how and why it works, and what the benefits are: Making the process clear and simple, for the needs of any reader, whilst covering the necessary depth to thoroughly understand its interworking's. - A deep dive into: Why muscle is preserved, how energy levels and cognition (brainpower!) are improved, practices for a healthy gut, an effective weight loss strategy that maintains your metabolism, and much, much more. - How to practice fasting in a modern world that doesn't cater to abstaining from food: This is what makes this book different. An up-to-date approach is taken to fully address the challenges of the modern world and its wonderfully diverse food culture! A full spectrum of possibilities is presented, so I guarantee there will be a protocol for you. - How to tailor your training whilst intermittent fasting, meeting specific goals, advanced techniques, and common concerns: I have leaned upon my health, training, and fasting experience to provide tailored information so you can design your own "Fasted Lifestyle" that lines up with your goals and needs - leaving you with the results you're looking for. - Carefully selected recipes that facilitate your goals: From high energy and sharp cognition, all the way to gut health and weight loss, with options for every eating choice - whether you're vegan or eat meat, high carb or low carb, losing or gaining weight... Wait a minute! It doesn't stop there... I can proudly say that this book is about so much more than intermittent fasting. It's about developing YOUR optimal healthy lifestyle, whether you decide to practice intermittent fasting or not, to achieve genuine and sustainable results. So... who am I and why can you trust me? About the Author Ben Smith is an ex-international athlete with an Internationally Accredited Diploma in Nutrition, also studying Mechanical Engineering at the University of Manchester.

Book The Essential Guide to Intermittent Fasting for Women

Download or read book The Essential Guide to Intermittent Fasting for Women written by Megan Ramos and published by Scribe Publications. This book was released on 2023-07-04 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a foreword from Dr Jason Fung, author of The Obesity Code, this groundbreaking guide to intermittent fasting for women includes step-by-step advice for preventing and reversing metabolic disease. As a teenager, Megan Ramos suffered from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and polycystic ovarian syndrome. By her mid-twenties, she had developed type 2 diabetes. But everything changed when she heard about intermittent fasting at the clinic where she was a researcher. Within six months of giving up snacks, adopting a diet high in natural fats and low in carbs, and fasting regularly for short periods, she reversed her metabolic conditions. And she began to counsel other people — especially women — about therapeutic fasting. Today, Ramos has helped over 20,000 people improve their health through intermittent fasting. In The Essential Guide to Intermittent Fasting for Women, she shares what she’s learned about fasting through clinical research, her own lived experience, and the experiences of the many women she’s worked with. Women — juggling kids, careers, and their roles in their communities — are prone to stress, which drives up cortisol and oestrogen levels in the body. Too much oestrogen at any time is bad. But as we age, we produce less oestradiol and more of its evil twin, oestrone, which leads to weight gain, depression, and abnormal growths. Recognising this fact, Megan provides practical advice about when and what to eat, and how and when to fast, in ways that work with and support women first.
