One form of intermittent fasting, alternate day fasting (ADF), involves a 24-hour fast followed by a 24-hour non-fasting period.[2] Alternate-day calorie restriction is under basic research for whether it can prolong life.[3] One can choose fasting 23 hours with one meal per day.[4]
In some contexts, fasting allows the consumption of a limited amount of low-calorie beverages such as coffee or tea. Modified fasting involves limiting caloric intake (e.g., 20% of normal) on fasting days rather than none at all,[2] possibly retaining most of the benefits of intermittent fasting.[3]
More generally, forms may choose to specify various ratios of fasting to non-fasting periods. The BBC2 Horizon documentary Eat, Fast and Live Longer[5] covered people who committed to fasting two non-consecutive days per week. Known as the 5:2 diet, people consumed 400–500 calories (women) or 500–600 calories (men) during the days of fasting. During feed days, the diet was regular.[6]
Just got done with my second day but it was tough because I decided to go for just one meal a day. After seeing your vid I might take it a bit easier and have a light lunch and a good size dinner instead of one monster dinner. Great job man. :)
