The 16/8 method includes fasting each day for about 16 hours and restricting your daily eating window to about 8 hours.
In the eating window, you can fit in two, three, or many more meals.
This method is known as the Leangains protocol and was popularized by fitness expert Martin Berkhan.
This fasting method can be simple as not eating after dinner and skipping breakfast. For example, you eat your last meal at 8 p.m. and don’t eat till noon the next day, and you’re fasting for 16 hours.
For some people who get hungry in the morning and eat breakfast, this method is hard to get used to those people. However, many breakfast skippers naturally eat this way.
You can drink water, coffee, and zero-calorie beverages during fasting, which can help decrease feelings of hunger.
