Abstract in brief

  • The 14-day fasting regimen led to a decrease in both muscle and fat mass, with biochemical markers reflecting fat composition decreasing during and after fasting; however, some factors like myostatin and complement C3 remained lower even after refeeding.
  • The use of a prebiotic combination and mineral supplements helped mitigate hunger sensations and physical distress during fasting, indicating a tolerable fasting experience with controlled side effects.
  • Overall, the study suggests that this fasting approach affects body composition and certain immune-related markers, with some changes persisting for months post-refeeding, highlighting potential long-term effects on metabolism and immune function.
