Additional (optional) measurement - for those who want to go deeper: 

Measuring body parameters before and during the fasting process is crucial to monitor the progress and effectiveness of the programme. Regular measurements allow an accurate assessment of the physiological changes that occur as a result of fasting and help to adapt the programme to individual needs.

In this section, we will introduce additional measurement techniques and methods that can help you monitor your progress more accurately:

  1. Blood sugar: Measuring your blood glucose allows you to monitor your metabolism and the effectiveness of fasting in controlling your blood sugar. Studies have shown that fasting can improve insulin sensitivity (source: Diabetes Care, 2019).

  2. Ketoni: Monitoring ketone levels in your blood, urine or exhaled breath can help you assess how efficiently your body is transitioning into ketosis. Ketosis is a state that can increase fat loss and improve mental clarity (source: Frontiers in Physiology, 2018).
