If you’re a carb lover, consider using intermittent fasting as part of your health and wellness practice or diet program. For carb lovers, losing weight is always harder than someone who eats less carbs. One study showed that the subjects who fasted were able to tolerate carbohydrates such as sugar better than those who ate regular meals.
