Any mental benefits to fasting? Anyone experienced definite improvement in cognitive function for work, concentration, memory etc?
I do when I'm on an intermittent schedule. If I eat during the day I tend to get slow and sleepy for work - even if I eliminate carbs.
Light eating or fasting during the morning and part of the afternoon and then eating a large meal or two in the evening is my protocol. Pretty similar to the warrior diet.
I try not to eat too close to bed or else I will wake up tired since my body spent the night digesting food.
When I did my 3 day fast I had issues concentrating. That may have been relieved if I continued it or supplemented with minerals.
