INTERMITTENT FASTING 2.0 – COMPLETE GUIDE

🔹 INTERMITTENT FASTING 2.0 – COMPLETE GUIDE

What is it?
A modernized version of classic intermittent fasting that allows strategic support drinks during the fasting window — like bone broth and bulletproof coffee — to ease adaptation, reduce cravings, and enhance results.


🧠 BENEFITS:

  • Speeds up fat loss, especially belly fat
  • Reduces inflammation and insulin resistance
  • Enhances mental clarity and energy
  • Regulates appetite naturally
  • Boosts autophagy (cell repair)

⏱️ POPULAR FASTING WINDOWS:

🔸 16:8 Method (most popular)

  • 16 hours fasting, 8 hours eating
  • Example: Stop eating at 8 PM → First meal at 12 PM next day
  • Eating window: 12 PM to 8 PM

🔸 18:6 Advanced Version

🔥 WHAT’S ALLOWED DURING THE FAST (2.0 version):

✅ Water (flat or sparkling)
✅ Lemon water with sea salt (morning only)
✅ Black coffee (no sugar or milk)
✅ Unsweetened tea (green, hibiscus, mint)
Bone broth (1–2 cups per day)
Bulletproof coffee (1 cup in the morning):

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or ghee
  • Black coffee
  • Optional: collagen or cinnamon
  • Blend until creamy

🛑 No fruit juice, milk, or snacks during fasting.


🥑 HOW TO BREAK YOUR FAST (12 PM or 1st meal):

Best meal combo:

  • Protein + healthy fat + fiber
  • Examples:
    • Scrambled eggs + avocado + sautéed spinach
    • Chicken breast + olive oil salad + chia pudding

❗ Avoid sugary or high-carb meals when breaking the fast. It spikes insulin and can cause fatigue.


📅 WEEKLY FREQUENCY:

  • Start with 3–4 days/week
  • Work up to 5–6 days/week
  • Combine with rest days or family meals strategically

💡 EXTRA TIPS:

  • Add sea salt to water in the morning to avoid dizziness
  • Use apple cider vinegar (1 tsp) before meals for glycemic control
  • Track how you feel: energy, hunger, focus
  • Be flexible: one imperfect day doesn’t ruin progress

🚫 WHO SHOULD AVOID FASTING:

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women
  • People with a history of eating disorders
  • Diabetics or medicated users (unless monitored)

🧘 MINDSET MATTERS:

This is not a punishment. It’s a strategy to free you from constant hunger, mental fog, and food obsession. You are not skipping meals — you are regaining control of your body.
