[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2178051, member: 506169"] With respect Resurgam, I think you are talking about comparisons between Intermittent fasting or OMAD and Low Carb rather than fasting for weeks/months as is done by the morbidly obese at Dr Jason Fung's practice in Toronto. Lets face it, few people could stand to lose several hundred lbs. But I would agree 100% that Low Carb is easier ( don't go hungry, count carbs, not calories) and is tolerated well by most people. Long term fasting doesn't in fact reduce energy - but it takes from 3 days to more than 1 week in order to turn the body to 'fat adapted' , have lots of energy and banish the hunger. [/QUOTE]
