Eat Stop Eat Review
Eat Stop Eat is the term coined by Brad Pilon to describe intermittent fasting. Intermittent fasting is fasting for short periods of time, usually for 24 hours.

Intermittent fasting is fasting for short periods of time, usually for 24 hours.
The theory behind intermittent fasting is that while fasting, fat burning enzymes are heightened, and, on a short fast your metabolism can actually be INCREASED, rather than decreased.
What I really liked about this book is that Brad clearly shows through several studies that most of the weight loss information we are fed by the dieting industry is actually intended to keep us fat, and keep us buying more products.
The notion of 'needing' to eat six times a day in order to increase our metabolic burn rate is actually total rot and serves the food companies well and us not at all.
Eat Stop Eat: Different Diets Can Achieve The Same Result
It is possible to get a great looking body on any kind of diet, and you will always see the proof of this with many a junk food addict with a body like Adonis (sure it might not be a healthy body internally but it can still look mighty good for a few years).
Back in the sixties body builders consumed high carb diets and still achieved the fabulous muscles and ripped competition bodies without the need of the high protein diets of today.
Today's body builders are obsessed with the idea that they need high protein diets and multiple meals per day in order to build their muscles.
This is all a fallacy and designed for nothing else but to sell lots of protein powder and keep folks guzzling it down.
Eat Stop Eat: Exercise is what builds muscle, not high protein diets
Provided you are consuming enough food (period!) and doing the TRAINING required to build your body, you can do so on ANY kind of diet.
You do not need to eat according to a schedule and you do not need to use calculus to work out the exact macronutrient ratios of your food.
Eat Stop Eat For Weight Loss
Eat Stop Eat through common sense and solid science shows how short term fasting works well as a weight loss method.
A 24 hour fast is super easy to accomplish as you can simply eat breakfast and lunch one day, (finishing at 2pm on that day) and then go without food until 2pm the next day where you pick up again with some lunch and dinner.
Or you can fast from 6pm one day until 6pm the next day, breaking your fast with dinner. Or from breakfast today until breakfast tomorrow, whatever suits your schedule. So you see you still eat EVERY day, there are just breaks between eating.
It could not be easier to accomplish and your metabolism stays just as fast as ever, or, if anything improves!
