Intermittent Fasting | Critical MAS
In addition to eliminating bread completely, I would say Intermittent Fasting is the best thing one can do to improve their health. Going without food builds resilience. It toughens you up. You will conquer your fear of hunger. Hunger becomes preferable to poor food choices. The confidence you build from controlling your hunger will spill over into other aspects of your life.
My Intermittent Fasting mentors are Arthur De Vany and Brad Pilon. If you are interested in learning more about the science of IF, I highly recommend the e-book Eat Stop Eat by Brad Pilon. I bought it in 2008 and read it twice. It really helped me understand how the human body responds to fasting.

Intermittent Fasting
In 2008 I began experimenting with Intermittent Fasting (IF). Intermittent Fasting means alternating feeding and fasting periods with a goal of extending the fasting portion to stimulate positive hormonal changes. For health and fat loss purposes, a period of 16 to 24 hours is the most common.In addition to eliminating bread completely, I would say Intermittent Fasting is the best thing one can do to improve their health.
