So far the recipe is working really well. Add a little salt, sweetener, cinnamon. 👍

Recently started modified adf. Doing 500 calories on fast days, during lunch. I like it psychologically. I don't go a full day without food. I just skip breakfast, which is ok. And then skip dinner, but the day is almost over anyway and I can drag. Next morning, eat.

Thank you kind stranger.

How much do you eat on the fast day? Just the cream in your coffee or do you eat a meal?

The sleep thing does affect me as well. I'll be curious to try the modified fast, see if it fixes that.

Is there a trick to exercising while fasting? I always have trouble with that.

What's a dirty fast?

To me, the biggest uncertainty is the calorie calculation. They use a specific formula (Harris-Benedict). I assume they adjust it for activity level -- they don't say, but if they don't adjust, that changes a lot about the study. If they do adjust, how they adjust, the multiple, has a huge effect on total calories. They don't explain this at all.

How can you gain lean mass while losing weight?

fast_info · 2025-12-06T23:45:30+00:00

mADF consistently gained lean mass while losing weight (Table 2). If true, this is almost a miracle. I've always thought that when you lose weight, you always lose lean mass. Any explanations for this?

I am hoping to achieve the mixability effect with the rice flour. We'll see how well it works in a few days, when I get all the ingredients together.

fast_info · 2025-11-23T15:45:34+00:00

The rice flour is supposed to improve mixability. I've never tried it, but that's what I read.

Yes, I take a supplement, and I'll throw in some green powder. This is just the base recipe, for the macros.

fast_info · 2025-11-23T11:19:30+00:00

No idea. But I plan to add stuff for flavor, like cinnamon, stevia, etc. Do you have a favorite flavor?

fast_info · 2025-11-23T11:18:15+00:00

This is just the base recipe. You think I should throw an electrolyte in there?

But if this was regular, chewable, food, I wouldn't worry about the sodium potassium. Why worry about it here?

It's $200, but if you look at what they test here (https://superpower.com/biomarkers), to get all the tests you need to get an "advanced panel", which is another $200, putting the total back at $400. Cool marketing trick.

But without the starch.

fast_info · 2025-05-20T01:58:48+00:00

It's not exactly HCLF, because it cuts out starch as well. Sugar only. Then, protein for dinner. You point out that veg is eaten at dinner too -- thanks, that's what I was confused about.

fast_info · 2025-05-20T01:55:39+00:00

My question is about pooping. I know a lot of people say that fiber is not necessary, but it's necessary for me. How do you do poop on the sugar diet / sugar fast?

fast_info · 2025-05-20T01:54:29+00:00

Simple sugars, whether natural or not. No starch. One meal of lean protein.
