A fasting-mimicking diet results in weight loss and improved metabolic health

Five days a month of a “fasting-mimicking” diet – low calorie, high fat – not surprisingly results in weight loss and improved metabolic health markers:

• Science: Five-Day Fasting Diet Could Fight Disease, Slow Aging
• Science Translational Medicine: Fasting-Mimicking Diet and Markers/Risk Factors for Aging, Diabetes, Cancer, and Cardiovascular Disease

You can likely reap similar benefits by doing some regular intermittent fasting too.
