Intermittent FASTING FOR WEIGHT LOSS

The body really only exists in one of two states - the eating state (high insulin) or the fasting state (low insulin). Either we store food energy or we burn stored energy. It's one or the other, but not both. You do not store fat and burn fat at the same time. If your eating and fasting are balanced, there should be no weight change.
If we start eating as soon as we get up in the morning and do not stop until we fall asleep, we spend almost all of our time eating. Over time, we can gain weight because we have not ever allowed our body to burn stored food energy.
To restore balance or lose weight, we simply need to increase the amount of time we burn food energy. It is periodically fasted.
Basically, intermittent fasting allows the body to use its stored energy. After all, it is for that. The important thing to understand is that there is nothing wrong with letting the body use stored energy. This is what dogs, cats, lions and bears do. This is what people do too.
If you eat constantly, your body will only use the incoming food energy. There is simply no need to take off the body's energy stores (body fat). Your body will save it for a time when there is nothing to eat. If you fast, your body will naturally lose weight.
