Intermittent fasting has produced a variety of beneficial health effects in animal models, although high-quality research in humans has been limited. This special report examines current evidences for intermittent fasting in humans, discusses issues that require further examination, and recommends new research that can improve the knowledge base in this emerging research area. While potentially useful for health improvement, intermittent fasting requires further study prior to widespread implementation for health purposes. Randomized, longer-term studies are needed to determine whether using intermittent fasting as a lifestyle rather than a diet is feasible and beneficial for the health of some members of the human population.
间歇性禁食在动物模型中已产生了多种有益的健康效应，尽管针对人类的高质量研究有限。本专题报告审视了目前关于人类间歇性禁食的证据，讨论了需要进一步研究的问题，并推荐了新的研究方向，以完善这一新兴研究领域的知识基础。虽然间歇性禁食可能对改善健康有益，但在为了健康目的而广泛应用之前，还需要进一步研究。需要进行随机、长期的研究，以确定将间歇性禁食作为一种生活方式而非节食方式，对部分人群的健康是否可行且有益。
