These studies suggest intermittent fasting may promote weight loss, improve metabolic health, enhance cognition, and reduce risks of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and age-related disorders, but more long-term studies are needed to confirm its safety and effectiveness.
Intermittent fasting (IF) is a dietary pattern that alternates between periods of fasting and eating. It has gained popularity for its potential health benefits, including weight loss, improved metabolic health, and reduced risk of chronic diseases. This synthesis aims to summarize the key health benefits and risks associated with adopting an intermittent fasting lifestyle based on recent research findings.
Intermittent fasting shows promise as a non-pharmacological approach to improving health by promoting weight loss, enhancing metabolic and cardiovascular health, and potentially increasing lifespan. However, it is essential to consider the potential risks, such as nutritional deficiencies and behavioral challenges. More extensive and long-term studies are needed to fully understand the benefits and risks of intermittent fasting.
