The Intuitive Fasting Quiz

Are you a hangry sugar-burner or an energetic fat-burner? Let's find out. The quiz from the new book Intuitive Fasting.

WITH DR. WILL COLE

Step 1 of 3 - Start Intuitive Fasting Quiz

0%

Intermittent fasting has gained popularity for its many health benefits, including weight management, improved metabolic health, restored energy levels, and enhanced cognitive function by switching you from being a hangry sugar-burner to an energetic fat-burner. Unfortunately, far too many of us have spent years relying on sugar as our main source of fuel, resulting in out of control inflammation, gut problems, and poor metabolic health. With the flexible plan in my book Intuitive Fasting, you can start a new cycle by breaking free of the metabolic health problems that have been keeping you sick and tired. But the question is, where do you stand in terms of your metabolic health? Take my quiz and find out if you need to become more metabolically flexible (aka a fat-burner) and how intermittent fasting can work for you.
