In addition to his five basic steps, a set of lifelong habits that will improve the readers health and control their insulin levels.

Weight Loss Buddy® has recently tossed its’ hat into the “Intermittent Fasting” arena with the introduction of “The 5 Day Fast Diet” (www.the5dayfastdiet.com). Like the popular “5:2 Diet”, the “t5DfD” takes advantage of the latest research on Intermittent Fasting. But it goes one better, by asking the user to “fast” only 5 consecutive days a month. The latest research in the field supports the superiority of 5 consecutive days over the 5:2 approach. Unlike the 5:2, it eliminates the need to prepare foods because everything for the “fast” is included in a box of nutritious snacks mailed directly to the customer’s doorstep. “The 5 Day Fast Diet” can also be bought on Amazon.
