– With intermittent fasting, there is no specific set of products, it is not scheduled what is possible and what is not, says Olga Bokeria. – But you need to adhere to general principles: choose healthy products, exclude refined carbohydrates and fats, canned foods, chemical substitutes and flavor enhancers.
How Intermittent Fasting Works
Recovery processes start in the cells, the level of growth hormone rises – this makes it possible to lose fat and increase muscle mass.
Insulin sensitivity improves, which lowers blood sugar levels back to normal.
When you fast, your cells start the renewal process. Old and non-working proteins that accumulate inside the cells are digested and removed. The maturation of new ones is also activated.
There is a change in the function of genes, those that protect once morest diseases and are responsible for longevity are activated.
