Perché bere molto determina il successo del tuo digiuno intermittente

genug_wasser_trinken_als_basis_fuer_intervallfasten_erfolg

Bere abbastanza acqua è molto importante! Abbiamo bisogno dell'”oro liquido” non solo per la nostra salute, ma anche per perdere peso con successo. Spesso altrimenti si verifica uno stallo sulla bilancia. Qui puoi scoprire quali compiti ha l’acqua nel corpo, quanto dovresti bere e come puoi farlo ancora meglio con l’aiuto del nostro tracker d’acqua BodyFast.

 

Perché l’acqua è importante?

L’acqua svolge un ruolo estremamente importante nel corpo. Oltre il 50% del nostro corpo è costituito da acqua! Non per niente si dice: l’acqua è vita.

L’acqua ha molte funzioni diverse nel corpo. Essa⁠…

    • serve come mezzo di trasporto⁠,
    • rimuove gli scarti e le tossine⁠,
    • apporta sostanze nutritive alle cellule,
    • regola la temperatura corporea,
    • mantiene umide le mucose come barriera protettiva contro gli agenti patogeni,
    • promuove la crescita cellulare⁠ e
    • garantisce importanti processi metabolici⁠.

Senza abbastanza acqua nel corpo, tutto diventa più difficile, che si tratti di perdere peso o della salute. In breve: se bevi abbastanza, tutto funziona meglio!⁠

 

Quanta acqua dovrei bere?

È davvero affascinante quante persone si sorprendono degli stalli e bevono troppo poco! Secondo gli studi, solo sei donne su dieci riescono a soddisfare il loro fabbisogno minimo di liquidi. Per gli uomini, ce ne sono solo pochi in più.

2,5 litri/giorno come guida

Soprattutto con il digiuno intermittente, un corpo ben “idratato” (cioè bere più della quantità minima!) è una chiave importante per il successo!

Pertanto, assicurati di bere almeno 2,5 litri al giorno. Un altro metodo per determinare il fabbisogno in modo più preciso è calcolare la quantità di acqua in base al peso corporeo. Gli esperti raccomandano da 30 a 40 millilitri di acqua per chilogrammo di peso corporeo.

Ovviamente questa è solo la base. Con temperature calde, attività fisica, ecc., può essere ancora di più! Pochissimi “riescono” a bere troppo. Se distribuisci l’assunzione di liquidi in modo uniforme durante il giorno, nulla può davvero andare storto.

 

Consigli per bere più acqua

Molte persone hanno difficoltà a bere abbastanza acqua. Questo può avere ragioni molto diverse:

    • Non hanno sete.
    • L’acqua non è “buona”.
    • Ci si “dimentica” di bere.

Ecco alcuni consigli su come iniziare finalmente a bere:

    1. Inizia con un bicchiere d’acqua non appena ti alzi al mattino. Questo getta le basi per la giornata!
    2. Tieni sempre una bottiglia d’acqua o una teiera a portata di mano e bevi spesso. E se hai fame, un grande sorso è una misura buona e veloce che funziona meravigliosamente.
    3. Porta un po’ di varietà nel bicchiere con qualche fetta di cetriolo, limone, zenzero ecc. o ad esempio con qualche foglia di menta, anche durante il digiuno.

Per non interrompere l’autofagia, dovresti evitare succhi e altre bevande zuccherate. Tuttavia, se non spremi la frutta e ovviamente non la mangi, il fruttosio rimane nella matrice cellulare e il corpo non assorbe lo zucchero. Rimani in modalità di digiuno e puoi quindi goderti le vitamine nella tua finestra alimentare.

 

Il nostro tracker d’acqua BodyFast ti aiuterà!

Per supportarti ancora meglio, abbiamo una nuova funzionalità nell’app BodyFast: il tracker d’acqua!

La cosa migliore: ricevi il tuo suggerimento personale su quanto dovresti bere al minimo. L’app calcola automaticamente la quantità che bevi in base ai tuoi inserimenti! Attualmente stiamo lavorando anche su una funzione di promemoria.

Puoi trovare il nuovo tracker d’acqua nel “tab Io”. Provalo: regola l’obiettivo giornaliero e la dimensione del bicchiere come desideri, aggiungi le tue bevande con un tocco e fai esultare il tuo personaggio!

Bere abbastanza non è mai stato così facile!

Con il Coach, il tuo piano personale e i compiti settimanali motivanti, puoi creare ancora più routine nuove per il tuo benessere.

Fallo per i tuoi obiettivi! Fallo per la tua salute! Fallo per te!

    My problem is my nephrologist says no more than 64 oz. per day! I had kidneys that were shutting down last August, had to go into the hospital. That was SCARY!

    I read one comment that they used the app without purchasing anything and still lost weight. I can’t get past the “coaching plan” which requires a membership with purchase. Am I doing something wrong?

        Hola estoy haciendo el ayuno de 16-8 mi problema es q no puedo tomar el te o cafe totalmente sin azucar lo q hago es endulzarlo un poco con edulcorante trato de usar lo menos posible. Sera q aun asi me da resuñtado?

        • Jenny M. Autore articoloRispondi

          Hola Natalia,

          incluso las más pequeñas cantidades de azúcar o edulcorantes rompen tu ayuno. Los efectos metabólicos positivos como el aumento de la quema de grasa, la limpieza de las células y otros se detienen por el aumento del nivel de insulina.

          Así que si realmente quieres ayunar, debes evitar cualquier aditivo durante el período de ayuno. Prueba diferentes tipos de té y café, ciertamente hay algo para tu gusto 🙂

          • Mbser

            We can drink water in the “fasting” time as well or only during the “eating” time?

          • Valerie Dratwa

            Hello Marko, yes of course you can drink water during your fasting period. This is extremely important to keep your body hydrated. ✌️

  3. Denisha Rispondi

    Can you drink carbonated water like Bubbly, Croix, etc…?
    Can you drink green tea?

    • Svenja Taubert Rispondi

      Thanks for your request. Sparkling water is totally fine, as long as you don’t add anything to it. 🙂 Pure green tea is fine as well.

  4. Shanna Johnson Rispondi

    Love having a water tracker as I have a difficult time keeping track. But, My Water tracker appears to not reset itself at the end of day. Is this normal? Do I need to reset it manually?

    • Jenny M. Autore articoloRispondi

      They are not recommended during fasting as they can nevertheless trigger an insulin reaction due to the sweet taste and cause cravings.

  5. Patricia Rispondi

    I normally start the day with the juice of half a lemon in warm water, does this break a fast?

    • Jenny M. Autore articoloRispondi

      Hi Patricia,

      Yes, the juice will break your fast as it contains sugar/calories. Some fruit slices in your water would be fine if you don’t squeeze and/or eat them. This way, the fructose stays inside the cell matrix and you won’t break your fast.

      Happy BodyFasting!

    • Jenny M. Autore articoloRispondi

      Hi Johnnie,
      You actually can switch between ounces and liters. Simply click on the three dots in the top right corner of your water tracker and you’ll have the option to pick the unit you need.
      If you need any further help, feel free to reach out to support@bodyfast.app. Thanks!

  6. Carol Rispondi

    If I drink black unsweetened coffee during fasting should I include this as “water” in the tracker, or should I only track plain water ? Also, when in the “eating” part of the cycle should all soft drinks be tracked as if they are water?

    • Svenja Taubert Rispondi

      You can track coffee as if it was water. Please don’t do so with soft drinks. 🙂

  7. Esperanza. Rispondi

    Hola, disculpa si tomo mis medicinas en la mañana mientras estoy en ayuno, se rompe por las pastillas?

    • Svenja Taubert Rispondi

      Hola, si es posible, tomes tu medicamento durante tus períodos de alimentación, ya que de lo contrario se interrumpirá tu período de ayuno. Si esto no es posible, por ejemplo, debido a que el medicamento debes tomarte a una hora determinada, le recomendamos que tomes tus pastillas a pesar del ayuno.

      Si no estás seguro de poder cambiar el horario de ingesta, consulte a tu médico.

  8. Jessica Rispondi

    HI I have been using body fast for two months now and I have lost 15kg. I have always believed that I could not fast. That I would be too hungry. I started with Keto diet and then tried fasting too. It was not hard. Unbelievable to me!!! I have now done 48 hr fasts with no problems!!! This really was mind blowing. What I have found is that drinking a large portion of water in the morning keeps me from getting hungry.
    I’m so excited to be feeling so good so energized and still be motivated to keep going. It is proving to be the simplest way I have ever lost weight. I have another 50kg to go but this time I have hope I will get there.
    One more thing, I have discovered when I plateau I need to drink more water. For my weight I am having to drink a whooping 4ltrs a day. Quite the challenge in itself!

          Whenever I break my fast I struggle to eat, stomach feels full quite easily and sometimes feels alittle sick. After eating and ending my fast, my stomach hurts, right in the center of my chest area. I’m.worrued I might be damaging.my pancreas. Is there any tip to help me with breaking my fast, I only have 1 hr window to eat, its like I’m racing against time.
          How can you help?

          ps. I also have a war. cup of green tea without sugar before I eat and sometimes while I eat.

            Longer fasts can cause your gut to produce less digestive juices which might be the reason why it takes you longer to process the food in your stomach. We share some tips to encounter issues of this kind in our blog post on how to properly break your fast: https://www.bodyfast.app/en/break-your-fast-right/

            May we ask you why you opted for OMAD / 23-1? To be honest, it makes it a lot harder to get in all nutrients your body needs and can also lead to a hormonal imbalance in women. It’s better to spread their intake of protein and healthy fats over at least two meals throughout the day. Of course everyone is different, we just want to make sure you know about potential side-effects and downsides.

  9. RUPINDER Rispondi

    How would you assist in calculating calories in Indian foods?are you saying that we dont have to count calories in our eating window?
    Normal two indian meals will do in eating window?what to do if i hit plateau?

    • Svenja Taubert Rispondi

      The principle of BodyFast is very simple – you can always skip meals and give your body a break. On the one hand, this results in numerous health effects and, on the other hand, weight loss, which also depends on the frequency and duration of the fasting periods.

      In the eating periods you can basically eat what you want. This is also the advantage BodyFast has over other weight loss methods. You do not have to count calories or change your meals.

      Instead of counting calories or following specific diet plans, we recommend a simple rule of thumb that will help you develop a natural sense of moderate and healthy portion sizes:

      + One full-size portion of protein-containing foods (meat, eggs, dairy, etc.) and a fist-sized portion of vegetables at each meal.
      + For most meals, a hollow hand full of carbohydrates (pasta, rice, fruits) and a thumb-sized portion of fatty foods like butter, oil, and nuts.
      These figures apply to women, men double the amount.
      Of course, intermittent fasting can also be combined with other diets such as low-carb or ketogenic, ie carbohydrate-limited diet.

      • Lisa Rayye Rispondi

        Does anybody else find that. during your 1hr eating window, ur stomach struggles to process the food, its almost like u are unable to eat comfortably. its like I’m waiting to eat for 23hrs and then when I finally get to my eating window I can’t eat. is my stomach shrinking? or do I eat less or slowly. how can I find a balance in my eating window?

    Ich habe bereits gelesen keine Softdrinks als “Wasser” zu tracken, schwarzen Kaffee aber wohl schon (entzieht Kaffee dem Körper nicht eigentlich auch Wasser?). Sollte man im Wassertracker sonstige “Wasseraufnahme” in Form von Tee, Saft, Milch oder Suppe erfassen?

    • Valerie Dratwa Rispondi

      Du kannst bzw. darfst alle Getränke welche im Eigentlichen zur Flüssigkeitsaufnahme dienen in den Wassertracker mit aufnehmen. Das heißt Tee und Kaffee ohne Milch bzw. Zucker. Abzuraten mit aufzunehmen sind auf jeden Fall Suppe, Milch und auch Cola, Fanta, etc. sind nicht von Vorteil. Bei der Frage, ob Kaffee dem Körper Wasser entzieht, spalten sich die Meinungen. Denn auch Kaffee zählt zur täglichen Flüssigkeitsbilanz. 🙂

    Thank you for producing this app. I was always thinking and told that fasting was dangerous but after research I am now educated to the real facts. I am working through fasting and still struggling to stay on programs but I keep coming back as fasting makes me feel good. Less aches, more energy, weight control and far less bloating. This is motivating! I think that this app has supported some positive changes in my well being and health.

      Hello John,
      If what you are currently doing, is sustainable for you and works for you then stick to it. In addition, if it makes you feel great and gives you a lot of energy to work out that much – keep doing it. 🙂
      As long as you stick to your routine you will definitely see results! Don’t be too hard on yourself and focus on staying on track.
      I hope this helps you and gives you some motivation. 🙂

    Hello. I’ve started using the paid version of the app and – so far so good!

    I was wondering however, is drinking sparkling water ok during fasting as an alternative to still water? I can drink still water however I find drinking sparkling water more easier to drink as it’s not so … boring? I hope this makes sense. Thank you 😊

      Hello Scott,
      it’t great to hear that you like BodyFast so far! We can only encourage to continue in order to fully benefit from the positive aspects of fasting. 🙂
      Of course you can drink sparkling water during your fasting times. Unsweetened tea and coffee without sugar is also acceptable.
      Happy BodyFasting! 🙂

  14. KATHLEEN J PRETTI Rispondi

    Just starting today. I am not a big plain water fan. I see you can use sparkling water. I assume you should not use the flavor packets (most are 0 calories but I assume have artificial swetners, I never fully read ingredients) ?
    Thanks

    • Valerie Dratwa Rispondi

      Hello Kathleen,
      During your fasting periods please only have pure water, tea and coffee without milk, sugar or sweeteners, as otherwise the autophagy process will be stopped. We do not suggest using zero calorie flavor packets since they stimulate hunger most of the time.
      During your eating times you can have whatever you like even though we warmly recommend a healthy diet and lifestyle! 🙂

    • Lisa Rayye Rispondi

      Hey Kathleen,
      the first day I started I find that I was drinking only cold water which was making me feel bloated and kind of sick, harder to drink as well. I was desperately trying to make may Dailey intake amount. then BodyFast gave me some tips about drinking tea etc. which was a big big help, the teas count as part of your water intake as well so that was even more awesome. I alternate between mint green tea and plain cold water. I’ve got the water intake covered now. I also measured out how many cups of tea/water I can get from a 2 litre bottle, this way I know 7 cups will give me my daily recommended amount, without wondering if I have completed it.
      suddenly I feel empowered by reading all your messages guys, I no longer feel alone on this journey.
      Thank you all for sharing.

    I am in my second week of fasting. 1st week I was on 15-9 plan. When I weighed myself I gained 0.5kg, I was disappointed but to my surprise my measurements was pleasant news 3cm off from both my waist and hips. Now I am on the 16-8 plan. I will only weigh an measure myself again by the end of my week.

    • Valerie Dratwa Rispondi

      Hello Hantje, well the scale does not always indicate on how well you are doing, measurements tell you so much more. When you are working out, you will build muscle and lose fat simultaneously which does not always reflect in weight loss, however you will see your measurements changing. As it is on your case. So keep up the good work and happy BodyFasting! 🙂

    • Jenny M. Autore articoloRispondi

      Hello Ron,

      There is indeed the possibility to drink too much water, which can be detrimental to your health. The “limit” so to say is highly individual, but it’s usually quite high and the probability of reaching it is quite low. You should be absolutely fine when going with the app’s recommendation as the daily target is based on scientific research calculating it based on your body weight.

      If you are unsure please consult a doctor.

    I am the kind of guy who eats breakfast in the 30 minute period after getting up in the morning. I thought it would be very difficult to me to follow a fasting plan, but started fasting 16/8 one week ago. I am truly surprised how easy it is following the coach instructions. On the third day I noticed my pants were a bit loose. I feel so great!!! I can lift weights without feeling tired, dizzy or drowsy. Too bad I did not know about fasting before. I really recommend the BodyFast app. Greetings from Mexico City!!!

      Ensuite, vous pouvez taper sur une zone verte / orange dans le graphique en barres pour déplacer la période de jeûne ou en modifier la durée.
      Si vous souhaitez ajouter une période de jeûne supplémentaire, cliquez sur “Ajouter une période”, puis sur une zone grise pour placer la nouvelle période.

      En cuanto a las comidas: puede comer lo que quiera durante su periodo de alimentación ya que el ayuno intermitente no incluye una dieta especial.

    Hi,

    I have a question about the water tracker. I find it great and very helpful but it resets itself at midnight, and I am unable to go back to previous days to see how much water I drank. I have tried to see options to go back but cannot find anything. Is it possible to see the previous day’s water log?

    A suggestion to the developer:
    I never sleep before midnight and still drink water after midnight. So at the moment, this is counting towards the next day’s intake. Perhaps it would be a good option for the user to customise when to reset the tracker?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hola. Yo estoy todo el dia tomando mate (amargo, solo yerba). Ademas todo mucha agua (sola). Pero el mate, aligual que el cafe o te amargo no rompen el ayuno… o si? Muchas veces hago ayunod e 16hs y alguna semana me anime a hacer solo cena.

    • Christian Mall Rispondi

      Hola Julieta, esto no es un problema, beber té o café mate puro y sin azúcar está bien durante tu periodo de ayuno. Sin embargo, te recomendamos un consumo moderado. Si consumes demasiada cafeína durante el ayuno, esto puede romper tu ayuno. Normalmente, 2-3 tazas al día están bien. Un exceso de cafeína puede hacer que el hígado libere el glucógeno guardado, que se convierte en glucosa, lo que hace que aumente el nivel de azúcar en sangre. Esto hace que el nivel de insulina también se eleve, rompiendo así tu ayuno. Te deseamos lo mejor 😊

      Hi there, we advise that you don’t take gummy vitamins during the fasting period since this will break your fast. Let us know if you have any more questions 😊 Happy BodyFasting!

    Hola … quiero saber si puedo usar eritritol como endulzante durante las horas de fasting … según cierta información científica mo afecta al Ku el de insulina en sangre, puede usarse en dieta keto y no rompe la cetosis … Grcs!

    • Christian Mall Rispondi

      Hola Henry, aunque no romperá tu cetosis, sí romperá tu ayuno. El eritritol no contiene hidratos de carbono, pero aun así romperá tu ayuno debido a su sabor dulce. Espero que esto responda a tu pregunta 😊

    If I drink tea without milk but add sweeteners to make it palatable, knowing that the sweeteners will induce hunger but always manage to get over the hunger pangs will this make the fast useless?

    A question concerning WATER intake:
    During my eight-hour “eating” period, if I have 300 ml of milk with my morning cereal, does it count as a glass of water?

    • Christian Mall Rispondi

      Hi Douglas, since milk counts as food rather than a beverage, we don’t recommend counting it as a glass of water 😊

    • Christian Mall Rispondi

      Hi there, during your fasting period, water (still or carbonated), tea (non-flavored herbal teas), and coffee (black) without any additives are allowed. So we don’t recommend taking apple cider vinegar to make sure to not break your fast 😊

    Hi

    What about sparkling waters is that the same as water and can you drink al the time?

    Mike

    • Christian Mall Rispondi

      Hi Mike, yes, feel free to drink sparkling water, this is not an issue 😊 Happy BodyFasting!

    Hi
    Wanted to find out if having sugar free bubble gum during the fast can break your fast.

    • Christian Mall Rispondi

      Hi Bernice, even sugar-free chewing gum can trigger an insulin reaction and break the fast. Apart from that, chewing gum starts digestive processes such as the production of stomach acid and increases hunger or cravings.

        Hi, i take medication daily for my mental health once a day. Can I take my prescription during my fast period ie would it interfer if I did? I’m doing 16-8.

        • Christian Mall Rispondi

          Hi Dorcas, your health should always come first, so we always recommend following your doctor’s advice when it comes to medication 😊 Happy BodyFasting!
