A new study shows that strict alternate-day fasting may be a valid alternative to counting calories and may have similar results, while also benefitting various biological processes.

Fasting may have benefits for healthy people, new research suggests, although there are some caveats.
People often alter their diets — in order to lose weight, improve their cardiovascular health, and become healthier overall. There are many different ways to do so.

A recent study looked into alternate-day fasting (ADF) to see whether it is a viable alternative to other methods, such as intermittent fasting or caloric restriction.

The researchers found that a number of health benefits accompanied weight loss in participants who practiced ADF.

The results of their investigation appear in the journal Cell Metabolism.
