I read an article in the July issue of Massage magazine titled “Your Healthy Body”, they cited research by the University of Illinois that was published in Obesity Reviews. According to the article, restricting calories 15 to 60 percent a day or every other day is effective in burning body fat.
This article also states that metabolism is increased for as long as 48 hours after exercise. In other words, to boost metabolism eat less and exercise. The difference is a person can eat normal one day then cut back the next and still lose weight.
It might be an easier way of losing weight for some rather being on a strict diet every day. However, dieting doesn’t work changing eating habits is what is needed. I wonder if restricting calories every other day would hinder getting into good eating habits?
