I read Intermittent Fasting for Seniors by Norah Halstead yesterday. Since I’m having real trouble losing weight and I am definitely a ‘Senior,’ I wanted to know what she thought.
She presented 3 choices as to methods of fasting. I didn’t even realize I had a choice! I think I’m going to try the one where I fast from 8pm until the next day at noon.
She also discusses taking into account your health condition or concerns, any schedules on taking your medicines, and, of course, talking to your doctor to make sure it’s a good idea for you. She stresses eating healthy whole foods during your ‘eating window.’
There is a good section on sources for the information she provides so that you can read further or clarify anything you would like.
If you’re considering this alternative to a diet, or addition to one you’re already on, reading this book may sway you one way or the other.
