Is Intermittent Fasting a Bad Idea for Morning Exercise Enthusiasts? Here's Why!

Intermittent fasting (IF) is a popular eating pattern that involves cycling between periods of eating and fasting. While IF has been associated with several health benefits, it may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who are physically active in the morning hours. Here are some reasons why intermittent fasting might not be ideal for physically active individuals in the morning:

Morning physical activity often requires a good source of energy to perform optimally. During fasting periods, blood sugar levels may drop, leading to decreased energy levels, fatigue, and reduced performance during exercise. Not just this , intermittent fasting might impair exercise performance, especially for intense or prolonged workouts. Without sufficient fueling before exercise, you might not be able to perform at your best.

Moreover, our cortisol levels are already high during morning hours and morning fasting can cause further stress on the system. This can increase inflammation in some individuals.
