5:2轻断食

5:2轻断食,为一礼拜中选择两天(必须不连续)严格控制卡路里摄取,而其他五天则正常饮食[1]这是一种源自于英国间歇性断食法[2],如今在美国欧洲各地皆开始流行。[3][4]

简介

5:2轻断食的特色是在一周中不连续的2天采取低卡路里饮食,而在其余5天则不特别控制[5][6]

运用两日的少量摄取饮食来平衡一周的总热量摄取,并降低将胃口撑大的几率,同时在轻断食日练习选择低热量食物与计算分量,也让低热量饮食摄取的概念、执行方式慢慢地成为生活中的一部分,渐渐养成低热量摄取的习惯。这样的方式同时也符合不勉强自己过度克制吃东西的欲望,在轻断食日,遇到真的非常想吃的食物,只要想着明天就可以吃,心里会比较能平衡也轻松。[7]

研究证据

目前有关5:2轻断食的研究非常有限,效果与安全性有待研究。根据NHS choice建议执行5:2轻断食前可先询问医师,因为禁食非完全安全的。[8]
