Contrast the weight loss effects of near-fasting to the weight loss effects of exercise

What will be an ideal response?


Near-fasting will stimulate faster weight loss. Fat and lean tissue losses are about equal using the near-fasting method. On the other hand, almost all of the weight loss is fat when one is exercising to lose weight. In fact, some lean tissue might be gained, so fat loss is greater than body weight loss.
