Is intermittent fasting really the secret to better health and weight loss/ fat loss? Read on to find out the hidden side effects that no one talks about before you skip your next meal.

The article from TheHealthSite.com discusses seven dangerous side effects of intermittent fasting, highlighting how this popular diet trend might do more harm than good. It points out that intermittent fasting can lead to overeating and binge eating during eating windows, potentially causing weight gain rather than loss. Other side effects include increased hunger and irritability, known as "hangriness," which can affect mood and social interactions. The diet may also cause low blood sugar, leading to symptoms like dizziness, weakness, and confusion, and can increase the risk of developing eating disorders due to its restrictive nature. Additionally, intermittent fasting might lead to nutrient deficiencies if not properly managed, and can cause digestive issues like constipation and bloating due to irregular eating patterns. The article also warns that this diet could negatively impact metabolism, potentially leading to muscle loss and a slower metabolic rate, which could make long-term weight management more difficult.
