"Reversing Biological Age: The 2.5-Year Impact of Fasting Diets"

A study found that following a diet that mimics fasting for five days a month appeared to reverse people's biological age by almost 3 years on average. The fasting-mimicking diet, designed to mimic the effects of a water-only fast while providing necessary nutrients, showed potential health benefits such as lowering the risk of certain diseases. Participants consumed low-calorie, high unsaturated fat foods for five days, and the study suggested that this intervention could make people biologically younger. However, the study involved a small number of participants, and further research is needed to understand the broader impact of fasting on different demographic and health groups.
