BodyFast Review (2026)
Algorithmic 'fasting coach' that rotates protocols based on your goals.
7.2 / 10
BodyFast’s hook is the “Coach” — an algorithm that picks a fasting protocol for you each week based on your goals. For beginners overwhelmed by 16:8 vs 18:6 vs 5:2 debates, this works.
For experienced fasters, the lack of control is the wrong trade. See fasting rankings.
