In recent years an intermittent fasting diet - or 16: 8 as some call it - has become a hit among many celebrities (hey, Jennifer Aniston) and as a result in anyone looking for the "easy method" to lose weight.

In the fourth episode of "Nutrition on the episode" we sent Gil Avidor Aloni to find out with the help of nutritionist Ruthi Fink what is the science behind this trend, and whether it really is a miracle diet that will make us healthier and leaner.

Intermittent fasting is a method of eating in which at a certain time of day you eat, and more often - fasting, accompanied by drinking fluids without carbohydrates such as water, tea and coffee without milk and / or sugar.

There are a variety of protocols for the method, and the most popular is 16-8.

That is, eat over a window of time of 8 hours during the day.

    It's the truth

However, it is important to know that the method is not really suitable for everyone.

There are people for whom it is not recommended to stay on a fast due to health reasons like kidney disease, medication, pregnancy, underweight, history of eating disorders and more.

Beyond that, the method may also have psychological disadvantages - for some people the fasting period can cause stress and even lead to overeating.
