The “One Meal a Day” (OMAD) diet has been around for a while, but it’s more popular now than ever before. That’s likely because fasting, intermittent fasting, and diets that revolve around not eating for long periods of time are more popular in general.

OMAD is the most extreme variation of intermittent fasting, and much tougher to follow than the Leangains protocol, for example.

Why would you want to eat just one meal a day, though? If you’re not doing it currently, should you consider it?

Many people say OMAD improves your metabolic health, reduces your risk of disease, helps you live longer, and is generally superior to traditional eating.

Other people are less convinced and question the efficacy, safety, practicality, and necessity of OMAD.

So that’s what this podcast is all about. What is the OMAD diet, what are its benefits,  what are the downsides, who should consider it (and who should not), and more.
