Why is Intermittent Fasting Important in Metabolic Syndrome?

Why is Intermittent Fasting (IF) important in Metabolic Syndrome?

If your sugar is slightly elevated, BP is a bit high, and cholesterol is somewhat increased, understand why you should do IF:

1. Insulin resistance decreases – addressing the root cause directly. 2. Triglycerides (TG) decrease, HDL (good fat) increases. 3. BP and sugar come under control. 4. Fat in the stomach and liver (Fatty Liver) reduces. 5. Gut microbiome improves – inflammation and swelling decrease. 6. The confusion of constant eating stops, cravings and hyperinsulinemia are controlled. 7. Autophagy starts – natural detox of cells. 8. Adiponectin increases – this hormone improves your metabolism. 9. Risk of PCOS and Type 2 Diabetes decreases. 10. Metabolic flexibility is gained – meaning the body produces energy in any condition.
