Tag: Adf benefits

According to a 2023 meta-analysis, alternate-day fasting (ADF) can reduce body weight, BMI, and cardiometabolic risk factors in overweight or obese adults. This practice, which involves switching between fasting and non-fasting days, triggers a variety of physiological changes in the body that can lead to significant health improvements for some individuals.

Research indicates that those who follow an alternate-day fasting (ADF) plan may see significant health advantages, such as weight loss and improved metabolic health, in as little as four to twelve weeks. This popular type of intermittent fasting alternates between days of unrestricted eating and days with low or no calorie intake, though the exact fasting duration differs.
