Intermittent fasting versus daily energy restriction for improved human health

间歇性禁食(IF)是一种营养策略，包括免费获得食物的一段时间，然后是食物被扣留的时期。这项建议将以我们过去的发现为基础，评估IF对糖尿病前期患者的代谢健康和体重的长期影响。这项研究将对指导当前的饮食实践具有重要意义，并为管理肥胖的代谢后遗症提供合法的策略。

Intermittent fasting (IF) is a nutritional strategy consisting of a period where food is freely available, followed by periods where food is withheld. This proposal will build on our past findings and assess the long term effects of IF on metabolic health, and weight in individuals with pre-diabetes. This study will have significant implications for informing current dietary practice, and provide a legitimate strategy to managing the metabolic sequelae of obesity.
