What does mild fasting 16+8 mean?

Mild fasting 16+8 generally refers to being unable to eat for 16 hours within a 24-hour period and being able to eat for 8 hours.

Appropriate light fasting can control the intake of fat and sugar foods and achieve weight loss to a certain extent. At the same time, it can help regulate blood lipids and blood sugar balance. However, if mild fasting is carried out for a long time, it may lead to malnutrition, dry hair, pale complexion, general weakness and other symptoms, which is not good for health.

If malnutrition occurs, you can eat light foods such as black fungus, eggplant, lean meat, and eggs to supplement some nutrients. If you are deficient in calcium and zinc in your body, you can take calcium gluconate oral solution, zinc gluconate oral solution and other medications under the guidance of a doctor. If symptoms such as loss of appetite and weight loss occur, you can go to the hospital for treatment.
