Beyond Dieting – Intermittent Fasting
Every person is different from next, and the way in which our bodies adapt to weight loss will be different. However, the traditional recommendation of continuous energy restriction of about 600 calories per day (1) is not always the right solution for everyone. In fact, most people fail to keep weight off for at least a year after reaching their target weight (2). In recent years, scientists have become more aware of the benefits of intermittent fasting, as performed on Isagenix Cleanse Days*, and that it can be an effective method for weight loss and weight management.

For example, if you aim to lose half a kilo each week, that’s two kilos by the end of the month. Then, once you’ve reached that milestone, celebrate your success [...]
The Science Behind Intermittent Fasting
Calorie restriction is a well-known method of weight loss that has been used for many years. However, many people struggle to adhere to this strategy and few people are successful in maintaining their weight loss. This has led to new and effective dietary strategies that can enable a person to lose weight and, most importantly, maintain their lower, healthier body weight.
