Original title: New study says intermittent fasting has many benefits
Now more and more people like intermittent fasting, which they think can lose weight, boost energy and even prolong life; In a review published in the latest issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, Mark Mattson, a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, says intermittent fasting does work and can be part of a healthy lifestyle.
Intermittent fasting is usually divided into two categories: limited daily eating, which is reduced to six to eight hours a day, and so-called "5:2 intermittent fasting", which involves eating only one moderate meal two days a week. In his article, Mattson points out that a series of animal and human studies have shown that intermittent fasting triggers metabolic transitions that help cell health, improve blood sugar regulation, increase resistance to stress, and suppress inflammation. In addition, intermittent fasting lowers blood pressure, blood lipid levels, resting heart rate, and can alter risk factors associated with obesity and diabetes.
addition to these benefits, intermittent fasting can also be beneficial to brain health. A clinical trial at the University of Toronto in Canada found that 220 healthy, non-obese adults who had been on a diet for two years showed signs of improved memory in a series of cognitive tests, Mattson said. He points out that while more research is needed to demonstrate the effects of intermittent fasting on learning and memory, if evidence is found, this diet could be an intervention to prevent neurodegeneration and dementia.
began studying the health effects of intermittent fasting as early as 25 years ago. About 20 years ago, he adopted this diet himself. He says he wrote the paper to clarify the science and clinical applications of intermittent fasting and to help doctors guide patients who want to try intermittent fasting. Mattson points out that it may seem difficult to stick to intermittent fasting, but under the correct guidance of doctors, most people can stick to it in their daily lives, and as the body and brain adapt to it, the hunger and irritability associated with fasting disappear after two weeks to a month.
