Abstract

Intermittent fasting is a method for prevention and treatment of the currently most common pathology, overweight and obesity. Of particular relevance is the fact that ugly and life-complicating obesity is a marker of metabolic disorders that predispose people to many noninfectious pandemics. The interval fasting is performed by daily complete refraining from food for at least 12 hours with a 12h:12h ratio of fasting and food consumption periods. Increasing the fasting period, for example to 18h:6h, enhances the preventive and therapeutic efficacy of intermittent fasting.
