#WTF Is Intermittent Fasting?

An empty stomach is perfectly natural. Fasting is something we all do while we’re asleep and whenever we don’t have food in our mouths — you’re probably fasting right now. Due in part to a recent spate of bestsellers and documentaries, “intermittent fasting” (or “IF,” typically defined as consuming nothing but water for 16 to 36 hours) has gained tremendous popularity in health and fitness circles as a way to lose fat, live longer, and even build muscle. But taking a break from food can be incredibly controversial, particularly among those who are still sold on the old doctrine of eating six small meals per day. So how could IF be one of the simplest and safest tools for managing your health? What’s the Deal?

LE JEUNE INTERMITTENT

Les vacances sont finies, hélas, mais il y a quelques restes, autour de la taille, par exemple. Je ne sais pas si vous êtes comme moi, mais pendant les vacances, on se laisse facilement aller, adieu les grands principes, c'est la grande liberté et on se permet de petits et même de gros écarts. La diététique est un peu oubliée. Le jeûne intermittent – Intermittent Fasting (IF) Le jeûne : un vieux concept paléo.

The so-called 'health foods' that are probably killing you. Le jeûne intermittent – Intermittent Fasting (IF) Feast and Fast: the dichotomy of insulin and growth hormone. At its heart the human body is a machine.

Feast and Fast: the dichotomy of insulin and growth hormone

A very complicated machine to be sure, unknowable in completion given our current basis of knowledge, but it still obeys certain engineering concepts in the end. One of those concepts is that the operation of a machine is governed by its control system. When it comes to health, the hormonal system is the control system that governs just how well we feel. We stimulate it in various ways and it causes our bodies to react to those stimulus. Trying to pick apart these relationships is, in my opinion, the key to understanding how to obtain good health throughout our lives.

Today I'm going to write predominately about growth hormone and how it metabolizes fat. Introduction The human body has two signaling systems: The nervous system, which primarily controls fast actions such as motion and thought.The endocrine (or hormonal) system, which primarily handles slower processes..The characteristic time scale of the nervous system is milliseconds.

Basal Metabolic Rate - Learn How To Calculate & Find Your BMR Your basal metabolic rate, or BMR , is the minimum calorific requirement needed to sustain life in a resting individual.

Basal Metabolic Rate - Learn How To Calculate & Find Your BMR

It can be looked at as being the amount of energy (measured in calories) expended by the body to remain in bed asleep all day! BMR can be responsible for burning up to 70% of the total calories expended, but this figure varies due to different factors (see below). Calories are burned by bodily processes such as respiration, the pumping of blood around the body and maintenance of body temperature. Obviously the body will burn more calories on top of those burned due to BMR .

BMR is the largest factor in determining overall metabolic rate and how many calories you need to maintain, lose or gain weight. Genetics . Body Fat Percentage . The "quick" method (based on total bodyweight) A fast and easy method to determine calorie needs is to use total current body weight times a multiplier.

Equations based on BMR.
