The Fastest Diet

The Fastest Diet by Krista Varady, PhD, Victoria Black and Gen Davidson brings the science of intermittent fasting to life in a practical, reader-friendly guide.

Grounded in clinical nutrition and shaped by the authors’ lived experience, this book explores how fasting patterns can support sustainable fat loss, energy, and healthier habits—without getting lost in fads or confusing rules. You’ll find clear explanations of why the method works, what to expect as your body adapts, and how to stay consistent.
