There is mounting evidence that fasting and a few dietary approaches (like the ketogenic diet) are useful tools for dealing with a whole sort of issues, from autoimmune diseases and generally any excessive inflammatory responses (including CHD). Calorie restriction OTOH is something that gives mixed results, and I suspect it may be related to the diet adopted and how it is implemented (ie, LCHF vs LFHC, fasting vs frequent small meals). I suggest anyone interested in food/health to spend some time on google scholar searching about these approaches, it's enlightening.
