Types of intermittent fasting
The 18/6 Intermittent
Fasting Schedule It involves fasting 18 hours per day and eating for 6
hours. A common way to split this up is to fast from 6:00 PM to noon the
next day or 7:00 PM to 1:00 PM. This is a great progression for those who
have tried 16/8 intermittent fasting and want to limit eating hours even
more.
The 16:8 method of intermittent fasting
involves fasting every day for 16 hours and restricting your daily eating window to eight hours. For most people, this schedule means not eating anything after dinner and skipping breakfast. You might eat between, say, noon and 8 p.m.
If you like to get your workouts done in the A.M., White suggests opting for a schedule that's more accommodating than this one (see the 14:10 diet). But if you prefer to get in your workouts during the late afternoon or after 5 p.m.,
you'll still have time to eat after your workout to refuel with a meal.
Some people swear by intermittent fasting, finding that it helps manage their appetite and weight and support their health. Others may not find this diet a good fit,
either for medical reasons or because it doesn’t match their picture of a nutritious and sustainable diet.
