I'm still a bit confused as why you would need to do a 5:2 fasting plan if you are already 7 days of the week in ketosis? What I could get from the The 5:2 fast diet site, you will eat "normal" for 5 days and then fast (500 cal) on 2 days. But with a LCHF eating plan you are not eating "normal" and your cals are already very limited. We have to define "normal". Can someone that read the book explain the fasting days objectives .... would really appreciate it.

Professor Tim Noakes is releasing a new book in December, Banting 2.0, where he combined fasting & the LCHF lifestyle. That's all I can help with.

Some people find that despite doing LCHF they are not losing weight as successfully as they like and intermittent fasting lowers insulin levels even further. When doing these 2 disciplines together it is like a double whammy for fat loss.

A fast day basically allows you to use up more of your body fat as energy rather than the usual food-for-energy. Some people may stay on a LCHF eating plan but tend to eat way over their calorie limit if they are attending an event so it a fast day allows one some flexibility.

I see, so basically it will push you back into ketosis state faster when you had a cheat (like to many lekker wines :)), or burn more fat on those days if still in ketosis. Thank you for the feedback. Will def. give it a try.
