Intermittent fasting is quickly becoming the most discussed weight loss concept in the weight loss industry today. Like a lot of other breakout diets, intermittent fasting (IF) is spreading very rapidly. A huge difference to most of the other diets though is that IF is gaining ground regardless of the fact that the practice challenges many long-held beliefs about nutrition. In fact, incorporating IF as a lifestyle forces you to eat much differently to those assumptions. The major difference in eating habits, along with excellent testimonials is what's creating the vast popularity.
