Eating a small steak every day could be as good for you as stopping smoking, scientists say. People who eat lots of protein-rich food were found to have lower blood pressure and more healthy arteries, significantly lowering the risk of heart attack and stroke.
When most people mention intermittent fasting, this is what they mean. The most common eating window is eight hoursâfor example, only eating between 10pm and 6pm or between 12pm and 8pm, then not eating anything outside of those hours. Thatâs 16 hours of fasting and eight hours of eating each day. This is often referred to as 18/6 intermittent fasting. Some people will decrease the eating window even further, such as 20/4 or even as lower as 23/1, only eating one hour a day. Choosing your eating window can vary based on what works best for you, but starting with the standard 18/6 is best for most people.
