Adiposity

Adiposity refers to the amount of body fat stored in adipose tissue, and excess adiposity is commonly associated with higher risks of metabolic disease.

Adiposity refers to the excess accumulation of adipose tissue in the body, a major risk factor for chronic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Inflammation

Inflammation is a natural response of the immune system to an aggression, but when it becomes chronic, it can lead to metabolic…

Glucose

Glucose is the primary sugar in the blood and the body's main energy source, with levels that typically drop and stabilize during fasting.

C-reactive protein

C-reactive protein is a blood marker produced by the liver in response to inflammation, and tracking it can offer insight into overall metabolic health.

Intermittent Fasting

Intermittent fasting is an eating pattern that alternates fasting periods (without calories) with periods when food consumption is allowed.

Glycogen

Reserve form of glucose stored in the liver and muscles; it is depleted in the first hours of fasting.

Digestive Enzyme

Digestive enzymes are specialized proteins that break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in food so the body can absorb and use their nutrients.

Zinc

Zinc is a trace mineral essential for immune defense, wound healing, and enzyme function, and it also plays a supporting role in metabolic regulation.

Clean fasting

Clean fasting means consuming nothing but water, plain black coffee, or unsweetened tea, avoiding any calories, sweeteners, or flavoring additives.

Collagen

Essential protein that provides structure to the skin, bones and joints; can also be supplemented during fasting.

Insulin resistance

Insulin resistance occurs when cells stop responding efficiently to insulin, forcing the body to produce more of it to control blood sugar levels.

Vegan Diet

Vegan diet completely excludes products of animal origin (meat, fish, dairy, eggs, honey), relying on vegetables, fruits, cereals, legumes, nuts and seeds

Urea

Urea is a waste compound formed in the liver as protein is broken down, then filtered by the kidneys and excreted in urine as part of metabolism.

Body recomposition

Body recomposition describes the process of simultaneously losing fat and building lean muscle, often pursued through strategies like intermittent fasting.

Low-Carb Diet

The low-carb diet is a diet that limits carbohydrate intake — such as white bread, pasta, and sugar — and emphasizes protein, healthy fats…

Glycemic index

The glycemic index ranks carbohydrate-containing foods by how quickly they raise blood sugar, helping guide food choices around fasting windows.

Thermogenic effect

The thermogenic effect refers to the extra calories your body burns digesting, absorbing, and processing food after a meal, which varies by nutrient type.

Neuroplasticity

Neuroplasticity is the brain's capacity to form new neural connections and reorganize itself, a process linked by some research to fasting.

Hypertension

Hypertension is a condition characterized by a constant increase in blood pressure in the arteries above normal values, affecting the heart…

Beta-Hydroxy Butyrate

Beta-hydroxybutyrate is the most abundant ketone produced when the body shifts to burning fat for fuel, and is commonly measured to track ketosis.

Cortisol

Cortisol is a stress hormone that helps regulate blood sugar, metabolism, and inflammation, and its levels naturally fluctuate throughout a fasting period.

Fasting window

The interval in which no calories are consumed; triggers fat burning and metabolic adaptation specific to intermittent fasting.

Mitochondria

Mitochondria are the organs of the cell present in almost all cells in the human body, known as the “energy plants” of the cell.

Refeed

Refeed is a strategic recovery meal after fasting that helps the body replenish its energy reserves and avoid metabolic shocks.

Endorphins

Endorphins are natural brain chemicals that ease pain and boost mood, often reported to increase during exercise or extended periods of fasting.
