Download the product. I'm wondering, how important is it to start fasting at Sunset, as the app suggests via the Circadian Rhythm Fasting option? 4:30pm is too early as I usually don't eat dinner until 6. @kevinrose

Product Hunt

We've seen a ton of apps focused on calorie counting and diet routines but far fewer on this topic. Curious to hear from others' experience fasting for health/dietary reasons. 😊

@rrhoover I've been doing 20/4 or 22/2 fasts (fasting period/feeding period) pretty often, 36 hour fasts pretty much every week, and two 84 hour fasts (Monday night to Friday morning). It's been great. Clean, clear headed, and I like how my body feels not being require to process food. I'd be happy to chat more about it, as well. Let me know!

@rrhoover fasting is super healthy, I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes one of the dietary trends in 2017 http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/08/he...

@rrhoover over 2016 I've lost (and kept off) 15 pounds (7kg) with the 5:2 diet. http://5typos.net/update-on-52-diet Over the past couple of months I've relaxed the restricted calories days a bit, and moved more to skipping breakfast and drinking a Soylent2.0 for lunch whenever I go overboard on a meal (2-3 times a week). It has worked surprisingly well. I've stayed in my 77kg/170lb "zone" with minimal pain. Excited to try the app for fun. However, one of the of the best things about fasting diets is the simplicity: very little is required to remember that you shouldn't eat for 16 hours. Still, as the owner of almost every GTD app, whatever helps you get started by implementing a new workflow is useful.

@rrhoover Well, I fast 2 times a year for 25 hours (no water no food) and I can say that the feeling after a fast is amazing. Feeling light, more energetic and more concentrated.

@rrhoover I love that there is always a different perspective, and that each new perspective can yield a new product. That said, I thought "fasting" was just another word for "sleeping." #breakfast

Can you out tweet an AI?

Don't have an iphone to try it out 😞 Does it have a religious fasting program? If yes then you are looking at a market of +1.5B people and I am just counting Muslims 😮

@sarim_haq many of the more dedicated Christian community practice as well, but I haven't found them to do it in droves, just as they believe they need to.

@timothy_joh you are right - my Catholic friend fasts twice every week but then again he is a devout.

I'm sorry, but I have to be the doubter here. First of all, fasting makes your blood sugar levels drop. Some people don't handle that very well (i.e. me). After fasting, it takes my body hours to recover. So people, talk to your doctors first! Second, I am an observant Jew and we have six fast days throughout the year. And I can tell you that there's absolutely nothing to track: you stop eating, and then after a certain amount of time you eat. The end. What in the world are you tracking here? And finally, this strikes me as the latest hipster dietary fad. Eating Soylent and/or organic and/or kale wasn't enough, so how about we just stop eating altogether and track it according to our circadian rhythm! With an app! Woohoo! Just eat, in measure, and in a healthful way, without being extreme. And if you want to identify with poverty, support an app that prevents food waste or donate to a soup kitchen. For goodness sake.

@miriamschwab I totally get your point and I agree - we shouldn't jump on fads without researching them and ideally getting medical advice. However, every person's body is quite different and there is a lot of research to suggest that fasting is something to at least consider. Like everything in life, there is no magic secret to overnight success, we all gotta find what works best for us.

@edowling Agreed. It's just that fasting seems so entitled too. People who lack sufficient food must look at people in the first world who are choosing not to eat as insane.

The fasting proposed by Kevin (and Hugh and the Rock) is called Leangains and I've been doing it for years. This app looks really nice, but why measure the fasting period? I only ate between noon and 8 pm. Every day. So tracking it would be kinda redundant? Really looking forward to how it evolves though!

very cool to see this. I've done a few pressed vegetable juice fasts (10 days) and had great results. This would help me keep my routine, and to add more structure around planning them. looking forward to trying some of the other fasts listed in the app! Congrats @KevinRose, @DBurka and @CalebD
