Our latest evidence review examines intermittent fasting through the Cochrane systematic review and randomised controlled trial data, including the physiology, the limits of animal research and the patients for whom fasting is unsuitable.
Intermittent Fasting: Miracle or Myth?
A Cochrane review of 22 randomised trials (1,995 adults) and a 12-month NEJM trial, with the underlying insulin, glucagon and ketone physiology, the status of autophagy evidence, and contraindications to fasting.
