This EIGHT hour diet is the key to weight loss, experts reveal – Daily Star

WANT to lose weight? Try this eight hour diet.

GETTY

A few years ago, people went mad for the 5:2 diet, where you would eat for five days and fast for two.

While this is now grouped with other fad diets, a new fasting diet is currently the go-to for celebrities.

Called the 16:8 diet, the way it works is you eat normally during an eight hour time period and then fast for 16 hours.

Miranda Kerr and Nicole Kidman are said to be fans of the diet and nutrition experts believe it can increase your energy and help you lose weight.

Dr Joseph Marcela, told New Idea there are three rules to follow.

1. You must skip one meal a day

2. Avoid late-night meals

3. Eat and drink normally during your eight-hour eating time block

It likely doesn't matter which meal you skip - breakfast or dinner - as long as you skip one of them, Joseph said.

He added its important to eat earlier in the night so your body isnt trying to digest a full stomach when it is inactive.

The best part? You only need to do this two days per week to see results.

So for five days you can eat regularly, but for two days you can only eat regularly for your chosen eight hours.

The benefits of intermittent fasting include balancing your hunger hormones, burning fat stores for energy and boosting your metabolism and energy levels.
