Resumen
ESPINOSA, Alan et al. Intermittent fasting: effects in diverse clinical settings. Nutr. Hosp. [online]. 2024, vol.41, n.1, pp.230-243. Epub 07-Mar-2024. ISSN 1699-5198. https://dx.doi.org/10.20960/nh.04790.
Introduction:
intermittent fasting plans propose to limit food intake during specific periods as nutritional therapeutic strategies to treat different metabolic conditions in various clinical entities. However, the heterogeneity between each context of intermittent fasting could generate different results in metabolic parameters.
Objective:
to evaluate the clinical application of intermittent fasting and to discern whether it offers advantages over other traditional strategies.
Methods:
structured questions were formulated (PICO), and the methodology followed the guidelines established by the PRISMA 2020 statement. The search was conducted in different databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar).
Results:
we found 3,962 articles, of which 56 were finally included; 3,906 articles that did not directly or indirectly answer the structured questions were excluded.
Conclusions:
compared to conventional diets, the various AI schemes do not generate advantages or disadvantages in terms of weight loss and lipid profile, although in the alternate-day variant there are greater insulin reductions than those observed in the continuous energy restriction. The heterogeneity of the interventions, the populations studied, the comparators, the results, and the type of design make it impossible to extrapolate the effects found in all clinical scenarios and generalize the recommendations.
