There is also a diet floating around
called the Fast-5, in which you fast on a daily basis for 19 hours. In
this diet, you have a window of five hours per day in which to eat
whatever you wish. The window can be at any time, but it is the only
time that consumption of food is allowed.
In This Diet, You Have A Window Of Five Hours Per Day In Which To Eat Whatever You Wish.
Effects and Side Effects The
Fast-5 way of eating works because it restores appetite to an
appropriate level for the amount of stored energy (fat) you have and the
amount of energy you expend in a day. You take in less food so your
body burns more fat. Binge eating may occur during the adjustment phase
of the program, but doesn’t typically persist.
People on a Fast-5 way of eating have reported the following: Inches before pounds—Inches
seem to disappear before the weight comes off. Probably due to fat
redistribution, this means a Fast-fiver typically will see loosening of
belts or pants before the weight loss is seen on the scale.
Feeling cool or cold when they’d usually be comfortable —This
occurs during the fasting period due to the absence of heat generated
as a byproduct of digestion of the usual meals. Digestion is metabolic
activity, but the energy burned by digesting food is less than the
energy that gets stored, resulting in a net gain of calories and fat.
While the absence of digestive heat may mean wearing an extra layer in
cold weather, it also means greater comfort in warm or hot weather.
After starting Fast-5, the heat byproduct of digestion may be more
noticeable after break-fast because it hasn’t been going on constantly.
Decrease in symptoms of inflammatory and other diseases—Fast-fivers
have reported diminished symptoms of: rheumatoid arthritis, multiple
sclerosis, asthma, congestive heart failure and a reduction of insulin
requirement for type 2 diabetes.
Saving money and time—Fewer meals, less food, and less time spent preparing meals means more time and money for you to spend as you wish.
