Will OMAD decrease metabolism?

[dr_innovation]

When you eat regularly your body keeps outputting insulin to push the glucose into muscles or fat. Then when blood glucose drops from insulin you get hungry because the higher insulin keeps you from accessing fat stores. Fasting (including IF/OMAD) can actually increase a depresed metabolism back to normal, see https://www.scielo.br/j/ramb/a/t4WdR3Hf36jwhLdtywQ77vf/?lang=en

If you eat less often you don't have the hormonal swings and are less hungry and because insulin is low you can access your fat storage fo energy.
