✨ New Study on Intermittent Fasting (16:8)
A new study of 99 adults with overweight or obesity found that 16:8 intermittent fasting helped participants maintain their weight loss for a full year after the program ended.
✅ Eating within an 8-hour window worked whether people ate:
• Earlier: 9 AM–5 PM
• Later: 1 PM–9 PM
💪 The early eating group also maintained more fat loss over time.
Even better? About 1 in 3 participants chose to keep doing intermittent fasting on their own, suggesting it's a sustainable lifestyle habit.
Takeaway: You don't have to eat all day to see results. An 8-hour eating window—paired with healthy nutrition like a Mediterranean-style diet—may help with long-term weight management. The best schedule is the one you can stick with consistently.
Remember: Intermittent fasting isn't for everyone. Talk with your healthcare provider if you have diabetes, are pregnant, or have a history of disordered eating.
