I have been practicing IF for the past two years. I will eat dinner around 7pm then eat nothing until 12pm the following day. (It takes the body about 12 hours to fully digest your last meal, so that means 4 hours of real fasting)
I also take curcumin twice a day. Curcumin is the active ingredient in the spice turmeric, and is a natural anti-inflammatory. Chronic inflammation is the leading cause of many illnesses, including arthritis and heart disease.
Oh, I didn’t sleep in a Holiday Inn last night, either, so seek the advice of your doctor. If they are still old school, find another doctor!
