With high-profile devotees like Jennifer Aniston and Jimmy Kimmel singing its praises, Intermittent fasting may be the latest weight loss craze, but it is more than just a diet trend. Intermittent fasting alternates between periods of eating and periods of fasting, with each one lasting a predetermined amount of time. It is a style of eating that many doctors now prescribe for their patients for its wide-ranging impact on the function of cells, hormones, and genes. Join Josephine Thomason MS, RDN, LDN, founder and owner of Nutrisi Consulting, and Sarah Gallander, BSc, CFNC, FBCA, founder and owner of the Wellness Matrix, to gain an understanding of the evidence-based health benefits and reasons to consider implementing intermittent fasting.
