TL;DR There might be something in it but nobody really knows because no one has studied it properly.

TL;DR
There might be something in it but nobody really knows because no one has studied it properly.
- spuz 11y agoThat's a very poor TL;DR. There have been many studies involving animal responses to fasting. There have been fewer human studies due to the difficulty of performing controled studies on humans but reading this report will give you an idea of where the data is lacking. Saying 'no one has studied it properly' comes across as a little unfair.
- PhilWright 11y agoFair point, maybe I was a little harsh. But I think people reading the headline just want to know if it works. Is there something to it? The answer is, come back in a few years and maybe we will have an answer.
