Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. Know Your Body Type

If you trend more towards weight loss you’re fasting protocol will not look like that of someone that gains weight easily.

2. Catabolism

Fasting for too long for some individuals leads to a loss of muscle and lowering of metabolic rate. This happens most often in older adults and women.

3. Short vs. Long Fast

Short intermittent fasts are great for daily and weekly use, but longer fasts should not happen within the same month unless recommended by your health practitioner.
