Abstract in brief

  • Fasting, whether through intermittent or periodic methods, shifts metabolism away from glucose reliance toward ketone bodies, offering health benefits like disease prevention and improved treatment.
  • Time-restricted feeding (TRF), which limits food intake to certain hours of the day, typically involves a 12-hour fasting window and provides various health advantages by synchronizing eating patterns with circadian rhythms.
  • Research aims to understand how nutrients influence fasting benefits to develop fasting-mimicking diets and interventions that can improve healthspan through accessible and cost-effective means.]

A ver,acá toca aclarar todo porque los "expertos" brincan. El ayuno NO Cura por si mismo patologías. PUEDE ser usado como PARTE de un tratamiento, NO es una cura mágica y AÚN hay investigación por hacer. A ver si dejamos los conceptos reduccionistas .https://t.co/uS48PxpDwL
