Should You Try Intermittent Fasting? Pros, Cons, and How It Works
About this episode
Curious about intermittent fasting but don’t know where to start? In this episode, I break down what intermittent fasting actually is, the different types (like 16:8, 5:2, and OMAD), and how it might work—or not—for your lifestyle.
You’ll hear:
- What intermittent fasting really means (not just skipping breakfast)
- The most popular fasting protocols and how they work
- The real pros and cons—beyond the hype
- How I personally use intermittent fasting and what I’ve learned from it
Whether you're exploring fasting for fat loss, better energy, or just simplicity, this episode gives you a realistic take to help you decide if it’s right for you.
