Mark Bell gives you his top reasons on why you should be fasting.
Limiting when you eat can help you lose fat, gain muscle, and make it
easier to stick to your diet.
| What is intermittent Fasting? |
The central idea behind the implementation of intermittent fasting is to
reduce overall calorie consumption, ideally resulting in weight loss.
Typically, intermittent fasting protocols will involve eating nothing or
very little (up to 25 percent of your normal daily caloric intake) for a
period of 16-24 hours. Following the restrictive phase, you'll return
to relatively normal energy intake for 4-24 hours, depending on which
version of intermittent fasting you're following.
| Which Intermittent Fasting Method is Best? | There are several different intermittent fasting plans, and at first
glance it may be a little overwhelming trying to figure out which plan
is optimal for you. While I can't tell you which one will work best, I
can give you details about the more popular diets.
This list is by no means comprehensive. Just make sure to select an
intermittent fasting protocol that works well with your schedule so it
will be easier to maintain.

Fast food hacks are essential for road warriors struggling to stay fit. Here’s the situation: You find yourself on a road trip without prepped food and in desperate need of some fuel. Skipping a meal is not an option. The only restaurants available to you are fast food chains. What do you do? We’ve got your answers with these top five healthy fast food hacks.
Skip the Caramel Macchiato and order up a turkey bacon breakfast sandwich. A low-carb English muffin with turkey bacon and eggs packs a lot of lean protein for an item with only 230 calories.
#4. DENNY’S:FIT SLAM EGG WHITE SCRAMBLE WITH TURKEY BACON
Any time day or night, you can walk into a Denny’s to fuel up. It can be a great place to drop in if you know exactly what to order. The “Fit Slam” breakfast has the macros that make eating out not entirely out of the question. Switch to whole eggs (with the yolk) to get some added choline and skip the turkey bacon if you are watching your sodium.
#3.CHIPOTLE: CHICKEN, PINTO BEAN, AND VEGGIE SALAD
As far as fast food goes, Chipotle ranks pretty high for quality and grab-and-go convenience. This salad has protein and healthy fats with nutrients coming from vegetables and carbohydrates from beans. To get the most out of your macros, ask for a romaine lettuce base with extra vegetables. You can double your chicken for additional protein, too!
#2. SUBWAY:6” OVEN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH DOUBLE MEAT
At Subway, it’s all about the choices. Choose double meat, the 9-grain bread, load up your sub with veggies, choose mustard over mayo, skip the cheese — and don’t add a giant soda, bag of chips and a cookie. To eat healthy at this chain restaurant, it will come down to the selections you make that will make the difference in your macros.
#1.PANERA: ANCIENT GRAIN & ARUGULA SALAD WITH CHICKEN
Our fast food order champ comes from Panera, which is on the fringe of being a true fast food establishment. Order up this arugula salad with chicken and ancient grains to get a whopping 32 grams of protein and just 400 calories.
The macros don’t always tell the full story. The biggest negatives to fast food usually hide in the ingredients and preservatives you don’t see. Not all of these ominous sounding names are bad ingredients, but most are preservatives, sugars and fillers:
Sodium Phosphate – A general term used for a variety of salts, usually added to processed foods for flavor or as a preservative.
Monosodium Glutamate – Sodium salt of glutamic acid that is a controversial additive to processed foods.
DATEM (diacetyl tartaric acid ester of mono- and di-glycerides, also E472e) – An emulsifier primarily used to make strong gluten for dough.
Dextrose – A simple sugar made from corn (chemically identical to glucose)
Calcium Propionate – Preservative and food additive
Xanthan Gum – Polysaccharide and thickening agent
Carrageenan – Polysaccharide extracted from red seaweed.
Soy Lecithin – A fat extracted from soy that is used as a thickener in processed foods
Polysaccharides – A form of carbohydrate
