Protein-sparing modified fast
From W8MD weight loss and sleep centers
The protein-sparing modified fast is a type of diet that is designed for rapid weight loss. The diet involves a very low calorie intake, typically consisting of protein-rich foods, such as lean meats, fish, and low-fat dairy, along with a limited amount of carbohydrates and fats. While the protein-sparing modified fast can be an effective way to lose weight in the short term, it is important to ensure that you are consuming a balanced diet that provides all of the necessary nutrients for good health. Additionally, the diet may not be appropriate for people with certain health conditions or dietary restrictions, who may need to follow a specialized diet. It is also important to note that the protein-sparing modified fast may require significant planning and preparation, as certain foods and cooking methods may be restricted. It is important to work with a healthcare provider or registered dietitian to ensure that your diet meets your specific needs.
