In this episode, Dr. Steve and his wife Theresa dive into the benefits and practicalities of intermittent fasting (IF). They discuss how intermittent fasting can help keep insulin levels low, promote fat loss, improve metabolic health, and even free up your time. Whether you're new to intermittent fasting or looking for tips to enhance your current routine, this episode offers valuable insights to help you achieve your health goals.

[00:01 - 06:07] Understanding Intermittent Fasting and Time-Restricted Eating

Intermittent fasting involves eating within a 6-8 hour window.

Time-restricted eating is a method within intermittent fasting, that focuses on specific meal times.

Both approaches aim to keep insulin levels low for better health.

Gradually ease into intermittent fasting by slowly delaying your first meal each day.

Differentiate between hunger and starvation; eating if necessary is okay, especially when starting.

[06:08 - 14:48] Planning Your Fasting Window

Choose an 8-hour eating window that fits your schedule.

Focus on protein and fat-rich foods to stay full longer.

Avoid carbohydrates and processed foods that spike insulin.

Nutrient-dense foods like meats provide essential vitamins and minerals.

Eating nutrient-dense meals helps maintain energy and supports weight loss.

[14:49 - 27:27] Practical Tips During Intermittent Fasting

Hunger often passes quickly; distract yourself with water or a simple activity.

Stick to unsweetened beverages like black coffee, tea, or water to avoid breaking your fast.

Stay hydrated by drinking half your ideal body weight in ounces of water daily.

Incorporate electrolytes if you’re cutting carbs to maintain balance and reduce hunger.

Regular movement helps manage hunger and supports overall health during fasting.

[27:28 - 35:28] Why Fast? The Benefits of Intermittent Fasting

Fasting promotes fat loss while preserving muscle by keeping insulin levels low.

Improves metabolic health by allowing the body to switch between burning fat and glucose for energy.

Lower glucose levels during fasting enhance brain function and reduce free radicals.

Fasting reduces inflammation and promotes longevity, leading to a healthier life.

With fewer meals, fasting frees up time for other activities, offering convenience and mental clarity.
