08-Apr-2020

Key points from article :

New study suggests that intermittent fasting has a host of benefits in humans, not just mice.

Dawn to sunset fasting (i.e. over 14 hours) for 30 days improves multiple critical health biomarkers.

Could be protective against many well-known age-related conditions, such as cancer and Alzheimer’s disease.

No eating or drinking was allowed between a predawn breakfast and a dinner at sunset.

Participants ate what they wanted outside of fasting and did not reduce their overall caloric intake,

Untargeted serum proteomic profiling was performed using ultra high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry.
