Scientists from the Harvard School of Public Health found that eating in the mode of so-called intermittent fasting can provoke a decrease in muscle mass. Especially when it comes to breakfast.

The time of breakfast, its composition and even the method of preparation – all these aspects affect health. An early breakfast increases insulin sensitivity and metabolic rate, and a morning meal high in calories, sugar, saturated and trans fats, and simple carbohydrates is associated with the risk of weight gain, metabolic disorders, and obesity.

Research has shown that there is a certain popular breakfast habit that can accelerate muscle loss.

This effect becomes more noticeable when someone chooses to follow what is known as intermittent fasting. Eating at fixed times throughout the day and fasting the rest of the time helps people lose weight.

This technique also reduces inflammation and oxidative stress. However, this habit is not without disadvantages. In particular, it can provoke frequent headaches in the first few days, increase the risk of diarrhea, constipation and other forms of digestive disorders.

A new study by scientists from Harvard School showed that eating in a limited period of time leads to muscle loss ulcer mass, and not fat reserves. This is due to the fact that this diet has no restrictions on the choice of products.

People must eat in a strict time interval, but they can eat whatever they want. In order to stop the process of losing muscle mass, fans of intermittent fasting need to monitor the foods they consume. Besides, without weight training, they still won't do anything, and muscle mass will continue to disappear.
