Only 71% of the study participants managed to make it through the 3-month period that would have included 3 fasting cycles. How many would be able to keep it up for a significantly longer period of time?
I fast between 12-20 hours a day about 28 days of every month with usually only one day with more carbs and some sugary food and usually at least one period every month where I don’t eat anything for 24-36 hours
Once you get used to it you don’t really miss eating junk and it’s no big deal to skip a meal or two-in my mid 50s and have more strength energy and endurance than most men half my age -it’s not too late to get your body to operate differently
