A delicous beverage recipe to burn fat + stop cravings A delicous beverage recipe to burn fat + stop cravings ͏‌ Íâ€Œ Íâ€Œ Íâ€Œ  ͏‌ Íâ€Œ Íâ€Œ Íâ€Œ  ͏‌ Íâ€Œ Íâ€Œ Íâ€Œ  [JJ Virgin]( For decades, I emphasized eating a protein-packed breakfast within an hour of waking up. Your body can’t store protein, so replenishing this critical macronutrient ensures your body isn’t breaking down precious muscle.   But after reviewing the latest science showing the benefits of intermittent fasting, I’ve revised my recommendations. You’ll still have a protein-packed breakfast, but you’ll push it forward a bit—within 90 minutes to 3 hours after waking. Then you’ll eat lunch and dinner by the plate, and close the kitchen for the evening.   Altogether, you’re creating a very doable 12-14-hour overnight fast, which delivers amazing results. (You’ll be sleeping for most of that time, too!)   This week, I’ve highlighted those science-supported [benefits of intermittent fasting]( (along with how to create a plan that works for you) in my newest blog. You’ll also learn the truth to rumors about whether fasting [can shrink your ovaries](, and I’ll leave you with a metabolism-boosting, cravings-crushing [drink recipe](.  [This week's blog]( Tip 1:   Read up on intermittent fasting. Fasting as a diet hack has soared in popularity over the last decade or so as scientists continue to discover intermittent fasting’s many benefits. In [this week’s blog](, I deep-dive into those perks, including how fasting can help you live longer, support your brain and heart, balance blood sugar, and of course, lose weight. I’ll also discuss who shouldn’t fast, a simple overnight fast that delivers great results, strategies for longer fasts, and tips to make fasting a breeze. Whether you want to master fasting basics or break a rut, this blog provides everything you need to get the benefits of this practice.  [This Podcast]( Tip 2:   Fast with your cycle. “Would fasting over 12 hours shrink your ovaries?” asks Barbie on Instagram. (No, not that Barbie!) The answer is yes, with a few caveats. In [this episode]( , my friend Cynthia Thurlow, a nurse practitioner, intermittent fasting expert, and author of the highly recommended book Intermittent Fasting Transformation, discusses the special considerations that women need to take while they’re cycling. Listen to her short, informative answer to hear how you can best use fasting with your menstrual cycle. [delicious spin on the classic Arnold Palmer]( Tip 3:   Sip on this metabolism-boosting iced tea. Even when you’re doing intermittent fasting, you’ll want to go 3-4 hours between meals. Eating by the plate helps kick mid-afternoon munchies to the curb… but they can still sneak up on you! This [delicious spin on the classic Arnold Palmer]( is your magic elixir to beat hunger and cravings. I’ve combined organic iced tea with lemon along with two cravings-crushing ingredients: L-glutamine powder and chia seeds.
