sorry forgot that you need to login to read it. let me just copy and paste part of it.,
The basic premise of The Renegade Diet is quite simple. You fast for 16 hours each day (say, from 8pm until noon the following day), then undereat for four hours, then overeat for four hours. This follows the natural human cycle of undereating and overereating like we did in hunter-gatherer days.
It could be simplified as eating one main meal per day at night, as that’s what it really comes down to for most people who follow the diet, although there are many variations that will be discussed throughout. The version that is ideal for you will be based on your activity level, goals and bodyfat percentage.
To simplify it even more we could break it down like this:
Skip breakfast.
Eat lightly during the day.
Over eat at night.
Have all your carbs at the end of the day.
Get lean and muscular with more energy than you ever had before.
Either way, don’t have carbs until later in the day. There are a few reasons why you want to avoid carbs during the day.
First of all, eating carbs during the day will take you out of sympathetic nervous system mode as we discussed earlier and flip the switch to parasympathetic nervous system mode. This is the rest, relax, repair mode that we want to enter at night; not during the day when we need to be active and productive.
The second reason to avoid carbs during the day is based on insulin sensitivity. As many experts have reported, the insulin sensitivity in your muscle cells is highest in the morning. But what they forgot to mention was that the insulin sensitivity in your fat cells is also highest at this time. That means your fat cells will suck up all those carbs from cereal and oats like a vacuum cleaner.
When you wait until later in the day to consume carbs, while fasting or undereating throughout, your insulin sensitivity in your muscle cells will improve significantly. And in the meantime you’ll be in fat burning mode all day!
The presence of insulin in the blood (from eating carbs) tends to blunt cortisol levels. The natural cycle for cortisol is to be high in the morning and low at night. If you lower your cortisol in the morning by consuming carbs you won’t have nearly as much energy and focus as you should. While I already discussed the dangers of too much cortisol, the fact remains that you do need some. Lowering cortisol by consuming carbs in the morning throws your natural hormonal cycle out of whack.
Consuming carbs at night is perfect because this is when you want to start shutting down and relaxing. The night time is when growth and repair takes place.
Even if you aren’t consuming any carbs at all, which will be the case for those above 15% bodyfat, you still want the bulk of your calories to come at night for the same reasons. The simple act of overeating will switch you over into parasympathetic nervous which will help you relax and allow the growth and tissue repair to take place. For many, this schedule of eating leads to significantly improved sleep quality.
