Is intermittent fasting good for an Indian diet?
JoFitness Nutrition explains intermittent fasting, Indian meals, calorie control, protein and who should be careful.
Short answer
Intermittent fasting can help if it reduces total calories without causing overeating later. It is not automatically better than a balanced meal plan.
Be careful if
- You are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive.
- You have diabetes medication that can cause low sugar.
- You have acidity, binge eating patterns or very low energy.
- You cannot meet protein needs inside the eating window.
JoFitness Nutrition note
Meal timing matters, but meal quality still matters more. JoFitness Nutrition uses fasting only when it fits the person, their medicines, sleep, workouts and family schedule.
