> society just pushes us to assume that even the tiniest pang of hunger is a negative health issue This is the mistake. In fact, the hunger pangs and light headedness, nausea, etc. are the result of low blood sugar. This can be a dangerous condition, but our body is equipped to deal with that situation - it can create sufficient energy from stored energy (fat and glycogen) - and will do so if we let it. But most people have conditioned their bodies for a steady supply of easy energy, and this makes the body increasingly less willing to go to the stores for energy (we are at a hormonal imbalance with excessive insulin prevalence which works to lock up fat stores and crave quick increases in blood sugar). This condition can be gradually fixed with intermittent fasting, which gives the body time to burn off the blood sugar spike, and concomitant insulin, and allow the process of fat burning to pick up, before you start feeding again. The effect of the fasting can be enhanced by eating fewer carbohydrates (which are the main trigger for blood sugar and insulin), which is the principle behind the keto diet.
