Intermittent Fasting
Intermittent fasting means cycling between set eating and fasting windows, such as sixteen eight; it should gently suit your body rather than feel forced.
Intermittent fasting is less about what you eat and more about when. You simply choose a window of time for eating and a window for resting your digestion, with sixteen eight being a popular pattern built around an eight hour eating window. Some women find it helps with energy and focus, though it is truly not for everyone.
The most important thing is that it feels supportive, never punishing:
- Listen to your body and never push through real hunger
