Read More »As a form of intermittent fasting, the one meal a day, also known as the OMAD diet has been rising in popularity since 2012. It entails fasting for 23 hours and having a meal during the remaining one hour of the day. However, people implement the one meal a day diet in multiple ways, depending on their preferences, daily routine, and beliefs on what a healthy lifestyle should be. For instance, some followers choose to have dinner as their single meal of the day, whereas others eat only breakfast or lunch. Another important aspect concerning people who follow this diet is whether they allow themselves to have snacks or small meals throughout the fasting period. While some OMAD dieters consume only unsweetened tea and coffee or have snacks or a small amount of food during the fasting period, other individuals take their eating habits to the extreme and only have water during the fasting period. Regardless of the way in which one chooses to follow the one meal a day diet, the goal of it is to create a calorie deficit so that the person can lose weight. So far, the OMAD diet is the most extreme type of intermittent fasting. No matter how it is achieved, a calorie deficit will inevitably result in weight loss sooner or later, and with the OMAD diet, the results will appear significantly more quickly than if the individual followed a more conventional diet. Because the people who are on this diet consume fewer calories, they are bound to eventually lose the amount of unwanted weight eventually. However, if you have recently heard of the OMAD diet and are thinking of giving it a try, you may wonder whether it is dangerous. The following article will discuss the benefits and the risks of this diet, as well as offer you tips on how to eat healthy on the OMAD diet.

For example, the restriction involved in the one meal a day diet may increase your blood pressure, as well as your total cholesterol levels, and it may also delay the response of your body to insulin, thereby increasing the levels of the hormone ghrelin, which stimulates your appetite. Consequently, you can experience extreme hunger if you do not eat anything caloric during the fasting period of the OMAD diet.
