This is not medical advice

Nothing on PingDiet.com is medical advice, and nothing here is intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. It is general information published for education, and it is not advice about you.

Do not start intermittent fasting without speaking to a doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have or have had an eating disorder, have diabetes or take medication that lowers blood sugar, have low blood pressure, are underweight, are under 18, or take prescription medication of any kind. Fasting can interact dangerously with insulin and several other drugs, and it can be actively harmful in disordered eating.

If you feel faint, unwell or unusually unwell while fasting, eat something and speak to a doctor.

Our commercial interest, stated plainly

PingDiet.com is owned and operated by Cloudalien Technologies LLC, which sells supplements under the Ping Diet brand. That is a material connection and you should factor it in when reading anything here about diet, supplements or weight loss.

These articles do not recommend our products and nothing on these pages is for sale. Where a product is ever discussed, the connection will be disclosed on the page itself.

No results are promised

Weight and health outcomes vary enormously between people. Anything described in an article is one person's experience, not a typical result and not something you should expect.

Accuracy

Nutrition science moves and an article accurate when written may be out of date now. Dates appear on every article. Corrections: the contact page.
