Click the Link for DATES, DETAILS, and FAQs! OCTOBER 30th CHALLENGE REGISTRATION LINK In today’s episode of the "Fasting for Life" podcast, we discuss a new study on time-restricted eating (TRE) and its impact on metabolic syndrome. We highlight that a study involving 108 participants demonstrated that TRE, even with a modest reduction in the eating window, led to significant improvements in weight, body fat, and LDL cholesterol over a three-month period. Despite some critics claiming the metabolic effects were minimal, we argue that the physiological benefits and lifestyle simplification offered by TRE are substantial. We advocate for incorporating fasting as a practical tool for health improvement and weight management, encouraging listeners to explore fasting as a sustainable lifestyle change.

    Ep. 250 - Why BMI Should Go Bye-Bye | Body Roundness Index for Better Health Assessment | Measuring Visceral Fat | Waist-to-Height Ratio | Fasting to Burn Stubborn Fat
    Oct 8 2024
    In today’s episode of the "Fasting for Life" podcast, we discuss using fasting as a tool for better health and wellness, sharing their personal transformations and offering actionable advice. We question the effectiveness of Body Mass Index (BMI) in measuring health and advocate using the Body Roundness Index (BRI) and waist-to-height ratio as better indicators of visceral fat, which is linked to higher health risks. We emphasize tapping into long-term fat stores through fasting rather than calorie restriction, which often keeps insulin levels high and doesn't target stubborn fat effectively. We encourage listeners to consistently implement fasting strategies, use more accurate health metrics, and potentially join their programs for support in achieving health goals.
