Is intermittent fasting a good diet plan for a healthier lifestyle?

Two dietary patterns that have been shown to improve heart health include the Mediterranean Diet and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. Another common dietary method based on periodic fasting intervals is IF. Alternative diets include alternate-day fasting and time-restricted eating. Despite the lack of large, randomised clinical trials evaluating the link between IF and cardiovascular outcomes, human research suggests that this diet may lower cardiovascular disease risk by improving weight management, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, and diabetes. IF may enhance your health in a variety of ways, including reduced oxidative stress, improved circadian rhythm, and ketogenesis. This review investigating the current data about the possible cardiovascular benefits of intermittent fasting and makes areas for further research.
