Intermittent fasting is changing the way we eat, including when and how we choose to get our calories. But the whole concept can be intimidating, especially if you’re used to snacking frequently or just love to eat. In the video below, Dr. Paul Biondich, director of wellness programs at LifeOmic, and Certified Primal Health Coach Marisa Moon demystify the ideas behind intermittent fasting, including what it is, why it’s good for your health, and why it’s different from every other diet. They also talk about how they got into intermittent fasting, how you can get started, and how the LIFE fasting tracker and the LIFE Extend app can help you keep track of your journey to better health.

I was also diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and have found fasting to be a terrific remedy for brain fog. What a difference.
