What Diet Fads On The Internet Don't Tell You | Between The Lines with Palki Sharma

[@Firstpost]

What do you think about viral diet fads? Do they work? Comment below and join the conversation.

[@VedaSay]

Intermittent Fasting is not a fade. Please stop spreading misinformation calling it a fade. Look at the Nobel prize winning work on Autophagy. On October 3, 2016, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Yoshinori Ohsumi for “discoveries of the mechanisms for autophagy.” IF is well explained now and is beneficial. Once 35 yrs old, breakfast is not the most important meal of the day. Give you digestive track break for 12-18 hrs. Constant eating builds up Insulin resistance which is cause of 90% of the present disease humans suffer including diabetes and cancer.

[@AvinashWrites]

Definitely it works. I'm practicing this for last 2 years. & I can assure you, it works amazingly.

[@papayabandit6355]

spreading misinformation. IF is not FAD . IF+ high fat low carb diet would make your brain super efficient. 3+ years on IF+low carb diet .

[@VedaSay]

Not sure which video you saw or you just made up the idea that there is no advise on what you eat. I have not seen such a video or note. Seems just to prove your point you made this up.

[@VedaSay]

6:00 the absolute disgusting product placement. Knew it has to be some sort of that disgrace. No you dont get hunger-pang if you prepare for IF. Stop spreading this miss-information.

[@iamme6924]

Yes fasting works, but it depends on what one eats in 8hr window, fruits vegetables and unprocessed home cooked food and strict no sugar, then 16hr fasting window in the long term gonna work wonders to one's body and mind. We feel spiritual and calm🎉 also do some minimum physical activities

[@janrzewuski6039]

👍 👍 👍

[@Shaktiman-dz4vq]

Works as in? What is it working on?

[@iamme6924]

@Shaktiman-dz4vq works for your body, ensuring longevity in your health 😊

[@indiasane9420]

Benefits of fasting are undisputable but as Palki mentioned its not for everybody. For example, people with acid reflux, GERD problem can't starve themselves for 16 hours to allow acid build up in stomach that can reflux to further damage the situation.

[@iamme6924]

@indiasane9420 16 hrs fasting windows isn't recommended from day 1 or sick body. It's gradual evolvement and then a lifestyle. Curing is different from healing, and fasting belongs to the latter.

[@prasanthumakanthan4377]

Practicing for last 2years apart from fat loss it gives you patience, stops aging, cleanses liver and toxic solids in the intestine. Also a good way to build muscle . started practicing after watching dr.eric berg youtube channel. I believe that preaching us to eat all 3 times and snacking all the day is a strategy built by food industries and politicians through doctors to make our pancreas get exhausted and make money through hospitals and pharma industries built by them.

[@aparajitachakraborty1440]

[@Sabkasath605]

If it worked for him/her, well and good. But there are others like me who have had a long troublesome years and IF and keto have brought me out of perceived dangers. All bodies are not alike and I request you not to suggest to people in trouble.

[@gcinanomela6772]

I've also heard of intermittent fasting, and I tried it almost immediately. Within a 6 months of trying it together with weight lifting, I saw my 6pack abs for the first time in my life. I've also noticed that I feel much better during the fasting period more than I do during the eating one. 😊

[@Rinkukumari1]

What kind of diet plan u were up to during the eating hours?

[@gcinanomela6772]

@Rinkukumari1 I didn't have any specific diet/foods, and I still don't. I eat whatever I want to in the 8-hour period, and no food within the 16-hour, just coffee with no sugar and drink lots of water.

[@qosmioamit]

I have been intermittent fasting every day since March 2019 and I couldn't be happier and healthier (based on my blood tests and medical reports). Then again I thought it's common sense that you shouldn't binge on junk food during the 8-hour window... I loved the neutral take on the topic and the positive message about balance. I suffered from the low energy issue for the first three months and after that my body adapted.

[@WatchingTheWorldGoRound]

For best results, cut or stop sugar intake, avoid high carb and processed food diet. I tried intermittent fasting with keto ( no carb) diet and lost weight,got fit, flat stomach and feel great all the time.

[@avikbandyopadhyay4018]

Intermittent fasting is not FAD… Just choose the window that best works for you.. it’s Ayurveda and now scientifically backed.. but the thing some don’t understand is it also depends on what you eat and if you wanna loose weight it has to be through Calorie deficit over a period of time..

[@toomuchdebt5669]

I think what most people forget is that intermittent fasting compliments an already healthy diet of low carb nutrient dense whole foods.

[@s_rudra1]

I am also doing intermediate fasting and it's very effective to our body

​@@Sabkasath605what was your eating window

[@Sabkasath605]

@@shaileshbhat6131 I was drinking coffee decoction twice with a tea spoon of cold pressed coconut oil between the time I got up and took my first low carb meal at around 1 or 2 pm. Then at about 5 pm I will have my decoction again. Then at about 7 or 7.30 I will have a secocnd meal that too low carb and high fat one. But timings are individual's choice depending on work times etc. Sustainability depends on how much fat you eat. The more the better. Fat is harmless when carb is reduced greatly. Fat is satiating.

[@srini9653]

I practice it too, it works amazingly well. It is not very different from 'upvaas' our forefathers do. We eat too much unwanted food. Now let's say you still end up eating pizzas/burgers during intermittent fasting, your body will eventually tell you that those food won't sustain if you want to *play by the rules of the game!* So one has to understand the concept of this before they jump into it. But thank you for covering this topic!

[@Ms_Kymm]

When I do intermittent fasting correctly, my body feels good, less bloating & inflammation... the problem is letting go of some foods, I've loved my whole life, because I start noticing which ones make my taste buds scream with delight, but makes my body feels terrible.

[@richas7835]

Intermittent fasting is not a diet fad. It is a lifestyle choice. Been doing it for 6 years and after every break due to travel I come back to it. Seems the most natural thing to do. Works really well to stabilise your insulin levels, mood swing and hunger pangs. Good for people who suffer some form of inflammation. Key is to do your own research and listen to your body. Good to club with healthy eating and yoga.

[@Shanthairtouch22]

The system can get tired of processing food, therefore,needs rest. Which means intermittent fasting is good at times 🤗😇

[@nisnid008]

it is not a fad. Been there since ages in all cultures and religions as already being explained. Especially in India. Western society has just discovered it recently. Most people benefit from it. Palki should also try it if not already doing it. Eat healthy to get the required nutrients in the eating window. Fast for 14-18 hours and see the results in your body.

[@p_sg3449]

Time restricted eating which is a better term, is usually practiced as "2MAD" ie 2 meals a day usually with a 16/8 or 18/6 hr interval. The 2 meals should consist of healthy foods - not convenience foods. You don't continuously snack on rubbish in the shorter time window which leads to insuling resistance. Our ancestors went thorough long periods when they didn't eat anything at all because of food scarcity. There's no harm in feeling a little hungry for a time during the day. It's what most people experience in the world today and what out ancestors experienced. Give it a try - you'll be surprised by the benefits. Your blood pressure and blood sugar levels will begin to normalize.

[@snuwan]

I have done intermittent fasting and got a lot of benefits. It is a life-style not a one time deal for a period of time. You have forgotten to mention Buddhism where monks has a life style of 6-18 style intermittent fasting for the whole life as a monk. There are reasons behind these practices. Yes, if you eat pizza and other non healthy food during the eating window, it will not work for weight lost. But a sensible healthy food taken during the eating window, it will do a lot of good for your body.

[@aarshifashions]

What she said is correct. Every body is different n one should consult a nutritionist before doing anything unusual. Also the 12hours fasting is advisable compare to 16hr provided u r eating normal home cooked meals in rest of the time. I think this works. Avoiding breads n sugars improves metabolism. Even if one eats carbs in lunch as well a dinner is fine with 12hr fasting. This is not weight loss but it helps maintain your energy n balances ur weight.

[@gregmacklin9758]

Nonsense, you eat proper vegetables and leafy greens as well as a proper amount of grass fed beef or chicken along with a proper exercise program you will transform yourself correctly. No doctor required..

[@incastinc]

I am 85 and going. Intermittent fasting is not fasting. Scientifically accepted fasting is "water-only fasting for 24 hrs up to 5 days continuously" depending on the patient under the doctor's recommended treatment. (Scientist got Noble Laureate) It is not meant for reducing weight only. Certain diseases are treated. People like me are prone to BP, Cancer, etc. Go to doctor not Google.

Pls do follow it...its not a form of dieting, actually it Is course correcting from being fat to the fit.... Do your research Autophagy, Dr.Eric Berg, Dr BM Hegde,...etc.....start gradually...10 hours for 10days ,13 hours for another 10days and finally 15 to 16 hrs thereon... Never directly start with 16 hours...... All these are from my mistakes, errors and successful weight loss...

[@checkanujout87]

The actual idea about IF & EF is to increase insulin sensitivity of the cells, remove junk cells from the body and generate growth hormone once in a while. So when you do eat, you should be eating foods that avoid insulin spikes and promote gut bacteria's health. The only way to do this is to consume foods that have high good saturated fats and fiber, moderate protein & minimal carbs. So automatically sugar, processed foods and trans fat go out of the window. Unfortunately, most people don't mention what to consume during the eating window. That's why it is very important to understand the mechanism and the logic behind any diet. You can look at videos by Dr Pradip Jamnadas, Dr Jason Fung & Dr Eric Ekberg to understand it better.

[@niteshshrivastava5735]

Palki conveniently left out autophagy and the anti aging benefits of intermittent fasting (Dr. David Sinclair). Intermittent Fasting may not be for everyone, but it is worth doing after following proper protocols and carefully watching what you eat. Read "The warrior diest" by Ori Hofmekeler and Lifespan by David Sinclair to know more.

[@Sabkasath605]

I have been one of your earliest admirers and I will most probably be so but on Pharma or diet topics you irk me really. Your quote: "IF barely ever talks about what to eat during eating window." Then talk about what you should eat during that period Palki, instead of scaring away people. You said you would tell us the "full" story. What a confidence! Don't bundle IF with "fad" (as you call) diets because IF is not a diet! It is the natural way of taking one's diet (16+8, atleast is natural). If you increase fat in your diet and reduce carbs you CAN sustain hunger pangs. (Now this leads to another debate with you. I am not asking one to do full keto but to increase fat to carb ratio) I did it that way for 3 years with full keto. And I got rid of many health issues. Most prominently my brain fog. Now I eat 2 meal a day normally and I am quite comfortable. IF is not making a grinder out of your mouth. And hunger pangs are because of the refined foods. There are thousands of doctors not quacks prescribing IF and Keto. Why do you still talk scarily? Have a conversation with eminent doctors like Dr Jason Fung instead! In fact IF deals with Insulin resistance. Start working on a story on Insulin resistance you will find yourself talking opposite of all this! Every time you eat your pancreas releases insulin. You may end up with Insulin resistance. It is what science says. Where is the problem? As far as the so called studies are concerned, you as a news researcher know better about them than us. And you are suggesting people not to follow so called "Fad" diets based on internet stories. Well I would say one should not give up the idea of taking to IF based on your talk on the same internet but to read authoritative books on IF by well known doctors such as Dr Jason Fung and non-doctor heroes such as Ivor Cummins. Please don't be so insensitive to our lived experience. PS. Large fibre in the food you eat, lemon with rock salt during fasting are key to success in sustaining IF.

[@buaid]

Yes. Intermittent fasting is only medicine to cure diabetes. There is no way out for this cancerous disease. I've reduced my body weight from 80 to 67 I'm 5.7". Exercise is not the care.

Intermittent fasting still works with a bad diet with no calorie control too. It even provides some amount of results for sometime, for the simple reason that, eating bad food in a restricted time is better than eating bad food alltime. Intermittent fasting can work wonders if adopted as a lifestyle, along with a good food habits, some exercise and good sleep. I have adopted IF for life, my hunger, craving levels are down and my health parameters read better than ever big-time.

BUDDHISME did " Intermittent Fasting" name as "Uposatha day" min 4 day in month (follow lunar moon calender ) Since 600 BCE (Before common Era ) In Uposatha Day, Buddhist lay people could Eat from SunRise (sundawn) sun light appear until high sun reach a peak/ sun above your head (or mean about 12:00 in Indonesia region ) After that u fasting until the next SunRise again This of course as option u can choose do or not do the Uposatha day

At the outset, I would recommend everyone to go through the small article by Desmond Morris, a renowned Anthropologist, ‘a little bit of what you fancy’. I am sure, none will ever discuss about the diet again after that.

As long as you eat low carb foods and avoid overeating during feasting time. Proper education for this diet is a must to avoid disturbance on your body.#LCIF

Firstpost.. @Palki, you should know by now, after reading most 99.9% of comments below disagree with you strongly. Those who tried IF will never ever agree with the false information that you are sharing. Please stick to topics which are of your expertise and not be jack of all trades. I too am into IF, and got my thyroid back to normal. My mind is much more calm and I don’t crave for food. It’s nothing but Ayurveda and our ancestors too have been fasting since long. You also have real proof of how IF has helped by simply reading the comments below. We don’t need to eat 3 meals a day. Give body time to heal, that’s the key. Keep eating, all that your body does is digest food.

Fasting always gives benefits in terms of weight loss or healthy mind set, ya it's also right that in some medical condition we should follow the doctor advise.

Buddhist diet practice is now being called intermittent fasting - to eat only between sunrise and noon. Astute followers even practiced OMAD diet… but what to eat in that window or slow is supposed to be by one’s body type and health condition.

Eating meat is not prohibited in Intermittent fasting. Is it allowed in Buddhist diet practice?

Intermittent fasting (IF) determines “when” you eat. “Diets” determine “what” you eat. So, IF is not a diet. Its a lifestyle choice, and it’s not easy, initially. But once I got used to it, my life changed. I am fitter. Healthier and look decades younger than when I started. Plus, it saves money and time, no complaints there. :)
