flag Study finds "4:3" intermittent fasting more effective than daily caloric restriction for weight loss.

flag A new study in the Annals of Internal Medicine found that intermittent fasting, specifically the "4:3" plan, is more effective for weight loss than daily caloric restriction. flag The 4:3 plan involves fasting for three days a week and eating normally for the rest. flag Over 12 months, participants following this plan lost about 17 pounds, 60% more than those who cut daily calories. flag The study suggests that fasting may be easier to adhere to and led to better health outcomes like lower blood pressure and cholesterol. flag Researchers stress the importance of additional support for those trying this diet.
