Intermittent Fasting has become a popular way to control weight and boost overall health for almost anyone. It is a proven method to lose weight and decrease hunger simply by cutting out meals.

Intermittent fasting is a type of scheduled eating plan where you adjust your normal daily eating routine to a hour-long window without cutting calories. Typical fasting time ranges from 14 to 18 hours. Fasting will help your body adjust from burning carbs to burning fat. Eating in a 6 to 8 hour window can take a few weeks to get used to and should be done gradually.

Once your body has successfully shifted into fat burning mode, it will be easier for you to fast for as much as 18 hours and still feel satisfied. Your craving for sugar will slowly lessen and managing your weight will be easier.

Our immune system can be weakened by many factors such as poor eating habits, lack of good nutrition and urban pollution. This program increases the functionality of the immune system, hence providing more cells for the body to resist negative outside forces.
