Intermittent fasting: between the promise of well-being and possible excesses

    Accueil > MINDSET > Advice

    Simple to implement, praised by some, decried by others, intermittent fasting leaves no one indifferent. Between a trendy health practice and the risk of abuse, it divides experts as much as it intrigues wellness enthusiasts.

    Intermittent fasting, which involves alternating periods of eating and fasting, has emerged as one of the leading trends in contemporary wellness. Promoted for its positive effects on metabolism, mental clarity, and longevity, it appeals to a broad, urban, and performance-conscious audience. But this practice, far from universal, also raises numerous warnings. Between real benefits and possible abuses, intermittent fasting must be approached with nuance and discernment, without falling into blind enthusiasm or categorical rejection.

    The benefits of an ancient ritual revamped

    Fasting is nothing new. It has permeated spiritual, medical, and cultural traditions for centuries. Intermittent fasting reinvents this ancient practice by adapting it to the modern lifestyle, notably with popular formats like 16/8 (16 hours of fasting and 8 hours of eating).

    Its benefits are numerous: improved insulin sensitivity, reduced chronic inflammation, and stimulation of autophagy (a cellular cleansing process). Some practitioners also report increased focus and energy, in addition to easier weight management.

    Criticisms and warnings

    However, intermittent fasting is not suitable for all body types or situations. Some people may experience significant fatigue, difficulty concentrating, or a weakened immune system.

    Nutritionists warn of the risk of yo-yo effects or orthorexic excesses, when the quest for dietary control becomes obsessive. The practice can also exacerbate eating disorders such as bulimia and anorexia, especially if adopted without professional guidance.

    A social and cultural phenomenon

    Intermittent fasting is not only a nutritional practice; it also reflects a lifestyle. In large cities, it is associated with a quest for performance and minimalism.

    Some see it as a symbol of discipline and balance, while others criticize it as an elitist trend, inaccessible to those with more demanding work schedules.

    This polarization reflects how diet today crystallizes identity and social issues.

    Finding personal balance

    Perhaps the real challenge of intermittent fasting lies in making it a flexible tool and not a constraint. There is no one-size-fits-all formula, only possible adaptations to each lifestyle and metabolism.

    Rather than giving in to a fad or imposing a rigid discipline, the most important thing is to listen to your body and, if necessary, consult a healthcare professional.

    Intermittent fasting can then become an ally of well-being, provided that it remains a conscious and chosen practice, and not an obligation dictated by trends.
