Default Re: intermittent fasting

Jeff W, link 6 doesn't seem to do very well in providing the backing you are looking for in my view, either-- although I'd have to get off my butt and read the whole thing. Also, I'll respect AZK's wishes about his thread (although, I'd have thought a literature review was welcome).

AZK. Whatever works for you is what works for you. A sample of 1 is plenty. A lot of cultures use fasting, and fasting was presumably part of our evolutionary past. I'm not interested in fasting-- at all, but I'll admit to skepticism of a long-term eating strategy that increases hunger. Also, I think the Paleo adherents at Crossfit make all sorts of dubious claims-- but I don't have enough interest to run them down.

I look forward to hearing of your progress/results.
