Sažetak
During the last decade intermittent fasting drew great attention of both public and scientific community as a strategy for weight management. Intermittent fasting is a diet regiment characterized by cycles between the periods of fasting and periods of unrestricted eating. There are a number of intermittent fasting patterns to describe this dietary treatment approaches such as 5:2 diet, alternate day fasting, periodic fasting or intermittent energy restriction. They all have in common the periods of fasting during which the energy intake is severely restricted, ranging from complete abstinence from food to a daily maximum intake roughly corresponding to 75% energy restriction as well as the periods of ad libidum eating. These eating regiments, beside potential interest to manage obesity, are in the focus due to potential health effects (influence on biomarkers and cardiovascular risk factors) and anticancer effects, including longevity which has been shown in animal studies. The aim of this lecture will be to provide an overview of intermittent fasting regimens and summarize the evidence on health benefits or adverse effects of intermittent fasting with a focus on human intervention studies. This lectures will also address conditions that should abstain from intermittent fasting and arise some important questions and concern.
