Kourtney Kardashian?s diet is not for the faint of heart.
In a lengthy post shared on her app, the 38-year-old broke down her recent detox. Detailing what she ate everyday, the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star revealed she wouldn?t eat ?14 to 16 hours? everyday and complete a ?24-hour fast one day a week? as a part of her diet.
?First of all, detoxing?of any kind?should be something you consult with your doctor about beforehand, since everyone is different,? she wrote. ?My doctor said one of the fastest ways to detox metals is to try to keep my body in a state of ketosis, which occurs when the glycogen in your liver is depleted and the body burns fatty acids for energy.?
?To do this, I stick to a low-carb diet, with high proteins and healthy fats, and I eat 3 meals a day?with no snacking in between. Also, I don?t eat for 14 to 16 hours after dinner (known as intermittent fasting)?so if I have dinner at 6 p.m., I won?t have breakfast until 8 a.m. or 9 a.m. Although, my doctor prefers I wait until after my workout before eating,?
