I'm new here. Can someone please guide me on how to go till OMAD?

Hi, 41F, looking for some guidance and personal experience of people who’ve been doing IF for a while. How should I progress from 16:8 to OMAD and what is the smoothest possible transition for it. Also, how are hormones affected for women who are entering their 40sand does it do anything for hyperthyroidism. I have a history of it l, so I just wanna ask you for your personal experience with these things. It would be really helpful. Thank you in advance. 😊

Edit : I also deal with acidity issues, so what can be done about that?

Answer

If you’re brand new to IF, start with 12:12 or 14:10. Then, after a week or so, move to 16:8 and do that for a week or two, then move to 18:6 or 20:4 and do that for a few weeks. Then move to OMAD.

Alternatively, you can work OMAD in a 1-2 days a week and do a standard fast the rest of the week. For example: 5 days 16:8, 2 days OMAD.

Answer

I suggest being successful with 16:8 first. After being comfortable with that, consider moving to 18:6. Then 20:4. Then OMAD. During this ramp up time, you are training your body to be less sensitive to insulin.
