Losing weight in a world where there are convenience food stores on every corner and life is frantic, with little time to prepare healthy food, makes success almost impossible. but what if we could lose weight while we sleep? well, we can with the wonderful tool called intermittent fasting.

Learning exactly how intermittent fasting leads to successful weight loss is the purpose of this course. Plus, you will learn what happens in the cells, and what options you may have to use this approach to suit your lifestyle. Successful eating to lose weight (you notice I do not say dieting?) can be manipulated with some tweaking, and intermittent fasting is one of those tweaks. Deigned to fall primarily over the time you are sleeping, intermittent fasting will reduce the discomfort you may feel with regular fasting, and yet weight can still be lost. Plus, you should feel better, with more energy, as you progress.

Explaining the details of AMPK and mTOR will help you understand and stick to your resolve to become a new you with the resultant body to go with it.
