Intermittent fasting
Intermittent fasting, also known as intermittent energy restriction, is an umbrella term for various meal timing schedules that cycle between voluntary fasting and non-fasting over a given period. Methods of intermittent fasting include alternate-day fasting (ADF), periodic fasting, and daily time-restricted feeding. A type of periodic fasting known as the 5:2 diet was popularised in the UK and Australia by Michael Mosley around 2012.
