This means the protocol needs to
be personalised for the individual,
he/she should ease into it and they
must be well monitored.
Through IF, her clients have
experienced weight loss as well as
resolution of medical conditions
such as insulin resistance, leptin
resistance, polycystic ovarian
syndrome, blood sugar imbalances
and type 2 diabetes. She believes
that IF definitely helps kickstart
a sluggish metabolism, which is
very helpful for those battling
with stubborn weight gain.
For women, Lynne favours
the Crescendo Fasting protocol,
which starts off slowly with a
12-hour fast twice a week and
builds up from there. She believes
that fasting can be prescribed as
a safe medical intervention and
lifestyle regimen that can improve
women’s health in many ways –
but should be avoided when there
is an existing thyroid condition
and/or adrenal or circadian
rhythm dysfunction.
Bottom line? Try it and see
if it works for you – it’s relatively
easy to do. But don’t push it if
it doesn’t. Q

HEALTH


MAKES 1L

3 fresh bay leaves
2g fresh thyme
2g fresh sage
1.5–2kg beef bones (such as
marrow, shin etc.), roasted
2–3 onions, cut into quarters
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 tsp black peppercorns
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar


  1. First make a bouquet garni by
    placing the herbs in the centre of a
    small muslin cloth, which you then
    tie into a pouch with string.
    2. Place roasted bones in a pot
    with vegetables, peppercorns
    and bouquet garni.
    3. Add 2.5L water to the pot
    along with apple cider vinegar.
    Bring to a boil, then simmer
    gently for up to 12 hours,
    refilling the pot with water when
    necessary. Remove any scum
    that rises to the surface by
    skimming it off with a ladle.
    4. Drain the broth through a fine
    sieve set over a bowl, allow to
    cool, then refrigerate until ready
    to use.
