In her book Lessons, the famous Brazilian supermodel revealed that she is a big fan of intermittent fasting. She swears by the 5:2 method of IF, where she usually eats five days a week, restricting her calorie intake to 500–600 calories on the remaining two days. 

She explains further that she fasts until lunchtime for two days per week, which allows her body to rest, repair, and digest. No wonder she looks so stunning in every picture!

The Spanish superstar was introduced to intermittent fasting by her husband, Chris Hemsworth. She says, “[Chris] he got me into fasting. So I’ve started fasting now; I was always like * Hmm, I don’t know!*, and it’s really hard, but then I started reading about it.”

She says intermittent fasting has done wonders for her because of its anti-aging effects. 

Scarlett followed a tremendously grueling and punishing routine to get into shape for her role in the Avengers as Black Widow. The results are there for everyone to see. In 2019, Johansson’s trainer revealed that she fasted for 12 hours a day, sometimes pushing it to 14–15 hours if the actress’s schedule allowed it. 

It is not only Hollywood stars who do intermittent fasting. Jack Dorsey, a Silicon Valley superstar, and the erstwhile CEO of Twitter and Square (Block) founder has said in many interviews that he has been following Intermittent fasting for quite some time and has hugely benefitted from the practice. In one interview, he said he skips lunch and breakfast, scheduling his dinner between 6:30 and 9 PM. 

This is what he said about intermittent fasting on Twitter:

“Been playing with fasting for some time. I do a 22-hour fast daily (dinner only) and recently did a 3-day water fast. The biggest thing I notice is how much time slows down. The day feels so much longer when not broken up by breakfast/lunch/dinner. Anyone else has this experience?” 

Dorsey’s fasting style is the OMAD plan (One Meal A Day). He says that his meal primarily consists of vegetables and proteins. He says that IF has brought him to a clearer state of mind, his days stretch longer, and he is left with better focus to concentrate on his work without worrying about regular meals throughout the day.
