Feeling Tired With Intermittent Fasting? (FIX IT!)
If you're. fitness enthusiast, you've probably heard a lot about the benefits of intermittent fasting, including weight loss, reduced inflammation, improved digestion, better mental clarity, better sleep, etc.
However, what most people don't tell you is about the side effects, more specifically, about the tiredness you might suffer once you start an intermittent fasting schedule.
Someone just wrote to me recently asking me if I feel tired while doing intermittent fasting, mostly because, he feels fatigued almost all the time.
And, in biological terms, it makes sense.
Your body is no longer getting the constant source of fuel you used to get from eating all day long, so expect to feel a little sluggish that first couple of weeks.
But you should be able to see this tiredness disappear after the first couple of weeks. Most of it has to do with ketogenic metabolism and how your body transforms the way it processes energy from now on.
