In this final episode of our limited series "Intermittent Fasting in Midlife," we addressed the top 10 questions you've been itching to ask about intermittent fasting (IF). We've covered everything from "How does IF work?" to "Is IF safe for women in midlife?" and much more.
One of the essential points we've emphasized is that intermittent fasting isn't a diet; it's a lifestyle change. This means the ideal fasting window should align with your daily routine, not vice versa. The goal is to find a method you can sustain over the long term, whether a 16/8 fast or something more flexible.
As for the foods you can consume during your eating window, focus on balanced meals filled with proteins, healthy fats, and fiber. Opt for full-fat milk in your coffee, and remember, you don't need a cheat day when you're eating right.
When it comes to social pressure, you don't have to feel guilty or ashamed for doing what works best for you. We've shared some strategies to handle these situations without compromising your IF routine.
Lastly, while intermittent fasting is generally safe for women in midlife, it's always a good idea to consult a healthcare provider if you have specific health concerns or preexisting conditions. Some groups, like pregnant women or those with certain medical conditions, should avoid fasting altogether.
