How to get rid of visceral fat around belly?

(Mary 🌹 ) #21

I agree…my lower belly fat has decreased by 1/2 in the last months of intermittent fasting/extended fasting. The science has been proven. It removes dead cells.

How long is the typical extended fasting? I have done a 7pm-noon fast which is tolerable. Is there anything you guys do in preparation before an extended fast?

Hi Tori, generally anything 24 hrs and under is considered intermittent fasting (IF) and longer that 24 hrs is extended fasting (EF). If you look up “fasting” on the forum you’ll see lots of threads! people tend to gravitate toward longer fasts once they’ve been keto for a while and are fat adapted. Preparation: some people feast beforehand (still keeping carbs low, of course) but others find that it’s easiest to just stop eating for a day or so. You need to make sure your electrolytes are good during a fast.
