Abstract
Background
The prevalence of obesity is rising globally and effective strategies to treat obesity are needed. Intermittent fasting, a dietary intervention for weight management, has received growing interest from the general public, as well as healthcare professionals, as a form of lifestyle intervention.
Methods
We executed a rapid review using PUBMED database to identify systematic reviews which examined the impact of intermittent fasting on metabolic indices, published between 2011 and 2022.
Results
Intermittent fasting leads to weight loss of a similar magnitude to continuous energy restriction. Most of the evidence shows that intermittent fasting leads to greater fat loss as measured by fat mass (kg) or body fat percentage when compared with ad libitum diet, but fat loss attained during intermittent fasting is not significantly different to continuous energy restriction although recent evidence shows intermittent fasting to be superior. There is mixed evidence for the impact of intermittent fasting on insulin resistance, fasting glucose and lipid profile. Some studies focused on populations of Muslim people, which showed that Ramadan fasting may lead to weight loss and improvement of metabolic parameters during fasting, but the effects are reversed when fasting is finished.
