5:2 Diet

The 5:2 diet involves eating normally five days a week and significantly reducing calorie intake on the remaining two non-consecutive days, typically to around 500-600 calories. This approach aims to create an overall calorie deficit, which can help with weight loss and improve metabolic health. On non-fasting days, you eat normally without specific restrictions. The diet emphasizes flexibility and sustainability, allowing individuals to reduce calorie intake without continuous dieting, making it easier to incorporate into daily life while monitoring overall calorie consumption over the week.
