Chapter 1 - The 5:2 Diet: An Overview

The most common cause of someone not being able to systematically lose weight is craving and the concept that you have to fight it for a long period—even for a lifetime. While most diets are only difficult in the beginning, especially during the phase of mild caloric restriction to induce the burning of stored fat, without a firm resolve, a dieter could easily be convinced to stop dieting with just a week’s worth of cravings. Often, dieting is associated with hunger—most often, psychological ones more than physiological.

Those who’ve experienced following different diets feel that after being subjected to a restrictive (but apparently temporary) lifestyle, they would never want to be in a diet program again. Unless otherwise a diet deprives someone while still keeping him satisfied and granting him the ability to give in to his cravings, weight loss will have to be achieved through means other than dieting.

This is why the revolutionary diet called 5:2 (or intermittent fasting) was made. The primary attribute of this diet is the 2 non-consecutive days of fasting and the five days of unrestricted diet. This form of diet prevents a person from quitting due to hunger. Actually, before conducting tests about the intermittent fasting, experts believed that people who underwent caloric restriction on the fast day would consume more calories on the feed day. Results, however, reveal that while people eat more than what they normally do, they only eat 110% of their normal caloric intake rather than, say, 175%. This only proves that 5:2 effectively address the craving aspect of most restrictive diets.

The 5:2 Intermittent Fasting

Humans have had little time to evolve to modern-day conditions. The improvements in the field of technology and agriculture have remarkably increased food supply. Ensuring that every person meets his daily caloric needs and protecting him from starvation, improving the person's survival rate and longevity. Ironically, however, the most well-fed nations in the world are those that are highly exposed to health conditions that are extremely fatal.

Intermittent Fasting and Neural Health

Age-related mental decline is observed to affect a person as early as the age of 45. Although common brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s and dementia are complex diseases that cannot be attributed to a single cause, medical experts are beginning to understand that it could be a long-term consequence of negative lifestyle factors, poor diet and faulty nutrition.

Studies reveal that there is a link between type II diabetes and brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. Over-consumption of carbohydrates from starch renders the body unable to respond properly to the signals from insulin and leptin. This, in turn, causes insulin resistance that leads to diabetes. Diabetes is attributed to a 65% increase in risk of developing Alzheimer’s that it has been informally called, by many, as type 3 diabetes or brain diabetes.

In a study conducted on mice involving intermittent energy restriction, it has been observed that either brain diseases are prevented (or at least, their onsets are delayed by a period that roughly translates to 30-40 years). Experts have noticed through microscopic images of the subjects' brain that during a sporadic period of hunger, new neural cells are formed. In addition, during hunger, neural cells receive stress signals similar to that of learning. This may explain why alternate day fasting programs, such as the 5:2 diet, have been effectively delaying the onset of or preventing age-related mental decline in dieters for years.

Numbers can be intimidating but fret not because 5:2 is as simple as the ratio of days an individual consumes his regular meals to the days one needs to fast. The diet follows the idea of intermittent fasting. Intermittent fasting is the series of rotations between days or periods of fasting and days of non-fasting.

Fasting can be intimidating but an individual should not fear this term because the concepts behind the 5:2 diet are easy to understand. Fast is the usual
