If in the attempts to take care of the health and lose weight you have started with the practice of an intermittent fasting protocol, the weekly diet of this occasion aims to help you solve the usual meals in a healthy way. For that, we leave a intermittent fasting menu with various recipes included.
Intermittent fasting is a method that organizes our diet alternating periods of fasting of at least 12 hours with periods of eating.
Thus, among the most frequent intermittent fasting protocols we find 12/12, with 12 hours of fasting and 12 hours of eating, 8/16 with 16 hours of fasting and 8 hours of food consumption, 4/20 or 24 hours, the latter being an option that alternates one day of fast for one intake.
Depending on the chosen protocol, daily meals will be organized. Thus, if we opt for the 16/8 protocol, which is one of the most frequent, we usually eat between 12 noon and 8 pm, leaving the rest to fast, including night rest in the hours of non-eating.
If we follow the 12/12 protocol, we can eat from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. or from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., depending on our activities and routine.
In the following weekly menu we leave three daily intakes, although they can be less or more, considering that we break the fast with a midday meal and end with an early dinner.
Complete nutritional and satiating preparations are recommended to be able to endure the hours of fasting afterwards. Thus, we propose the following weekly menu with various recipes, for those who carry out an intermittent fasting protocol:
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday
Sunday
It is important to remember that it is recommended adapt the menu to the particularities of each consumerin order to get more out of it.
Secondly, during the fasting period we recommend drinking liquids without calories in order to contribute to an adequate hydration of the organism. For example, water, sparkling water, or infusions without sugar.
