Intermittent fasting may lead to dizziness.


Outside of hunger pangs, the most common complaint people have about intermittent fasting is dizziness. As this type of diet aims to use up the excess sugar and emergency energy stored in your system, people may feel light-headed. This is also the main way the body uses its fat as energy.

There are many ways to go about intermittent fasting.


Roger Wolfson mentions several ways to go about intermittent fasting, mainly based on the number of hours people fast. Intermittent fasting can be done from 12 to 24 hours, sometimes even more, depending on its effectiveness.

People don’t need to do intermittent fasting every day.

Unlike many other diets, intermittent fasting can be scheduled. Some people do it twice or thrice a week, depending on a variety of factors that include the number of hours they fast, what they do during the days they fast, and more, Roger Wolfson adds.
