Fasting increases autophagy, where older "senescent" cells (more likely to become cancerous if they're able to bypass the body's checkpoints) are more susceptible to being targeted for recycling than healthy cells.
Time restricted eating and a low carb diet have nearly identical effects in this regard. If you don't want to do fasting or time-restricted eating, just do low carb or keto.
