Time-Restricted Eating
Intermittent fasting is a broad term that refers to multiple specific eating patterns.
Each type of intermittent fasting includes fasting periods that are longer than a normal overnight fast of 8–12 hours .
“Time-restricted eating,” or “time-restricted feeding,” refers to when eating is limited to a certain number of hours each day .
An example of time-restricted eating is if you choose to eat all your food for the day in an 8-hour period, such as from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The remaining 16 hours each day are the fasting period, during which no calories are consumed.
This same schedule would be repeated every day.
- Researchers say restricting eating to between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. can help you lose weight.
- They add that such a time-restricted plan can also help improve blood pressure and overall mood.
- Experts say it’s important to craft a diet plan that works for your schedule.
For our purposes we will start with 12 hours of eating and 12 hours of no eating. This will allow your body time to recuperate, recover and repair. When your body has to digest food, it can not help repair, and recover.
