Am interesting read. IF is supported by much science and I even studied it in a Coursera course on brain hacking. Along with Mediterranean diet and Keto, it's great for the brain and body apparently.
That said, the best advice my Cirque-coach gave me: match food intake with exercise in a given day. So if do a killer workout today, intermittent fasting is not going to give me enough fuel. But if I sit around in meetings/writing 6AM-10PM, fasting for 16h and eating in 8h of that day could work as it'll simply be lessening how much you one eats.
