Eat Stop Eat is a method of intermittent fasting developed by author Brad Pilon, which involves fasting for 24-hours twice weekly. Pilon stumbled upon the plan’s effectiveness while doing research on intermittent fasting as a graduate student at Ontario, Canada’s University of Guelph.

The 24-hour fasting plan allows you to eat something every day. For example, enjoy your evening dinner, and then eat nothing until dinner the following day. On the Eat Stop Eat plan, you’ll repeat this pattern on non-consecutive days twice weekly.

Because it allows for at least one meal each day, Eat Stop Eat differs from alternate day fasting, a type of intermittent fasting in which one cycles through a 36-hour period of no food, followed by a 12-hour eating window. Fasting more than 24 hours is quite extreme for most people.

Eat Stop Eat and alternate-day fasting are both variations of a 24-hour fasting plan. Either can help you lose weight in one of two primary ways. The first and most obvious is the caloric deficit that occurs by eliminating several meals per week. 

Intermittent fasting’s benefits, regardless of the method, include weight loss, increased fat burning, maintenance of muscle mass, a reduction in hunger hormones and increased insulin sensitivity.

While there are no specific studies that say the Eat Stop Eat diet plan is better than any other intermittent fasting method, for some people, the schedule may be easier to sustain in the long run, as it allows for at least one meal daily, and normal eating 5 days per week.
