I just read an interesting report from the Sunday Herald Newspaper (an Australian paper) that said that the practice of alternate day fasting is starting to become very popular.
Alternate day fasting (or traditional intermittent fasting) is where you fast every other day.
This a much stricter form of fasting than the flexible intermittent fasting that is used with the Eat Stop Eat lifestyle – where you fast once or twice per week.
I like alternate day fasting, but I still prefer flexible intermittent fasting because it’s more flexible (I know, I know..that was obvious).
It’s my opinion that flexibility is the key to a diet’s longevity. And the longer you can stay on a diet, the better it will work for you.
Either way, it’s good to see this eating style finally getting some media exposure.
Interestingly this article states that some Hollywood celebrities have followed versions of intermittent fasting, including Liv Tyler, Ben Affleck and model Christie Turlington.
If you know any Celeb’s that are following Eat Stop Eat…please let me know
