Fasting intermittently involves eating and drinking only during a specific window of time, for example, fitting in all of your meals between the hours of 10am and 6pm. Abstaining from calories during a longer window of time gives your body the chance to burn stored fat (instead of only burning what you recently consumed). But intermittent fasting is not for everybody, like diabetics who need to eat at certain times to manage their blood sugar. Intermittent fasting is not a one-size-fits-all weight loss solution, especially if not done correctly. Because this is a relatively new way of eating, people aren’t always aware of best practices. If you’ve started or are considering fasting intermittently, here are some important things you should not do:

From those burning, churning feelings that erupt whenever we eat our favorite foods, to the bloating that keeps us from zipping up our jeans, to the gas that can make us the most unpopular person in the elevator, our stomach can be the cause of some major inconveniences, if not some outright health concerns. Still, experts say most folks know painfully little about how their stomach and their digestive tract operates -- one reason that solving tummy troubles can seem much harder than it has to be. "There are some very popular misconceptions concerning stomach health, most of which can really lead people astray on how to effectively deal with certain problems," says Mark Moyad, MD, director of preventive and alternative medicine at the University of Michigan Medical Center in Ann Arbor. David Greenwald, MD, agrees. "Sometimes what seems like a complex, difficult or even frightening problem really is a simple one, with a simple solution, if you can separate the myths from the facts," says Greenwald, an associate professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Medical Center in New York City. To help set the record straight, Greenwald, Moyad, and NYU director of pediatric gastroenterology Joseph Levy, MD, helped WebMD prepare the following gut-busting challenge. Try to separate the myths from the facts to see how much you really know about how to keep your tummy healthy and happy.
