- NOTES:
- **Increased Risk of Heart Disease**: A study presented at an American Heart Association meeting found that individuals adhering to an eight-hour time-restricted eating pattern exhibited a 91% higher risk of dying from heart disease compared to those consuming their meals across a more traditional 12 to 16-hour timeframe.
- **Impact on Individuals with Chronic Conditions**: For people with pre-existing cardiovascular conditions or cancer, following a time-restricted eating plan was associated with a significant increase in mortality risk; a 66% higher risk of death from heart disease or stroke was observed among those with cardiovascular diseases.
- **Loss of Lean Muscle Mass**: Participants who followed a 16:8 time-restricted eating regimen, which involves eating within an eight-hour window and fasting for 16 hours, were found to have less lean muscle mass compared to those who ate over longer periods of the day. Lower muscle mass is linked to higher mortality rates and increased risk of heart disease.
- **Mixed Evidence on Health Benefits**: Despite the popularity of intermittent fasting, including time-restricted eating, for weight control and potential health improvements, evidence of its effectiveness remains mixed. Some studies indicate short-term benefits such as weight loss and improved metabolic markers, while others show no significant advantages.
- **Concerns Over Diet Quality**: Critics of intermittent fasting highlight that it focuses on the timing of eating rather than the quality of the diet. Consuming unhealthy food choices within the permitted eating window could negate potential health benefits and prove problematic in the long term.

- Intermittent fasting is any of various meal timing schedules that cycle between voluntary fasting (or reduced calorie intake) and non-fasting over a given period. Methods of intermittent fasting include alternate-day fasting, periodic fasting, such as the 5:2 diet, and daily time-restricted eating. [1] Intermittent fasting has been studied to find whether it can reduce the risk of diet-related diseases, such as metabolic syndrome. A 2019 review concluded that intermittent fasting may help with obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and inflammation. There is preliminary evidence that intermittent fasting is generally safe. Adverse effects of intermittent fasting have not been comprehensively studied, leading some academics to point out its risk as a dietary fad. The US National Institute on Aging states that there is insufficient evidence to recommend intermittent fasting, and encourages speaking to one's healthcare provider about the benefits and risks before making any significant changes to one's eating pattern. Fasting exists in various religious practices, including Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, and Judaism.[2]
