Intermittent fasting (IF) has become a popular health trend in recent years. While there are many ways to implement fasting, they all involve alternating cycles of fasting and then eating within a set number of hours. Research shows IF supports healthy weight management, healthy energy levels, brain health and healthy aging.* Certain nutrients can help you feel your best during fasting periods, including electrolytes, fiber and amino acids.*
Enzymedica's brand new fasting drink mix, Fasting Today®, was formulated to be the ultimate drink mix for intermittent fasting.* Electrolytes promote hydration and support healthy cell and organ function. They are ideal for pre and post exercise or daily intake. Fasting Today includes an electrolyte complex (sodium chloride, potassium bicarbonate and magnesium oxide) plus calcium carbonate. While fasting, electrolytes can help you maintain optimal hydration, while also supporting cardiovascular and brain function and helping to minimize cramping.*
