Any diet will work if you believe and make it a lifestyle. The type of diet you use must be something you are comfortable with. Name a diet. I may have tried it in the past years. IF is good but if your cortisol is too high then you may consider a different approach with your diet and not Intermittent Fasting. And yes I tried. Thats why I said any diet will work. I agree with Lord_Ac, mo hinay ra ang metabolism if mag pataka ka ug diet.
