Randomly decided to start eating one meal a day (for autistic reasons, not losing weight) and couldn’t find any guides that don’t devolve into “it cures cancer”.
I’m doing mostly fine, but I don’t want to learn that I accidentally screwed my health by doing something very wrong way after the fact.
I don’t see any reasons that it could really hurt, unless you’re skimping on some nutrients. Maybe make sure you’re starting your one meal with some good veggies, and plan a solid protein?
I skimmed through The Warrior Diet (it’s pretty self aggrandizing and cringe in bits), and that’s basically one meal a day supplemented by light snacks of veggies and protein throughout the day.
If it’s what you’re already doing, I don’t really see any issues!
Just because a meal contains all nutrients, that doesn’t mean the body will have time or be able to process and use all of those nutrients. You can’t just dump food/nutrients into your body and expect it all to be absorbed.
And how do you propose to measure this absorption?
I guess the person doing it would have to decide for themselves if it makes them feel better or not. One can always go do a blood vitamin check and see what they’re missing, if anything.
