The benefits can be negated by what you eat outside the fasting window. Anecdotally, a few guys I knew feasted on baclava and super sweet tea first chance they got. also not drinking any water during the fast, especially in hot climates might be net unhealthy independent of any fasting benefits. I don't know any studies on that though, happy to stand corrected...
