Most people try fasting with one goal in mind: LOSING WEIGHT.
But science has also discovered health benefits linked to whole-day, alternate-day, and time-restricted fasting, says Carolyn Williams, Ph.D., the registered dietitian that helped develop the new book The Men’s Health Guide to Intermittent Fasting.
Scientists speculate that the benefits of short-term fasts may come from the structured break they provide to around-the-clock eating.
Check out the potential upsides of intermittent fasting:

Intermittent fasting may target belly fat!
Overweight people who could choose any 10-hour timeframe to eat as long as they refrained from eating the other 14 hours of the day saw a reduction in waist circumference and visceral abdominal fat after 12 weeks, according to a report in Cell Metabolism.

Prevention Intermittent fasting may reduce diabetes risk!
The study referenced above also demonstrated the potential of intermittent fasting to reduce risk of metabolic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease.

Intermittent fasting may lower high blood pressure!
In another study, participants who practiced 16:8 intermittent fasting without calorie counting significantly reduced their systolic blood pressure compared to a control group after 12 weeks.

Prevention Intermittent fasting could fight inflammation!
Inflammation is your body’s natural way of fighting off infection, illness, and injury. But there’s another type of inflammation, a chronic inflammation that can silently trigger heart disease and diabetes.
Several studies have shown that intermittent fasting may induce an anti-inflammatory effect that reduces risk of those metabolic diseases.

Intermittent fasting may help you live longer!
Studies suggest that intermittent fasting may be much easier to maintain than extreme calorie cutting, and may boost lifespan, too. In one study comparing rats who were given unrestricted access to food to rats who were fed every other day, the rats who fasted lived 83 percent longer than those who gorged themselves.
