Followers of Jainism have been doing this for hundreds of years. There are multiple variations of intermittent fasting. For example, you can fast one day, feed once the next day or fast one day and feed twice the next day. During the fasting days, people only consume boiled water between sunrise and sunset. No foods or drinks of any other kind are consumed. On feeding days, there are restrictions on the types of foods you can consume as well. As a Jain, it's interesting to see research and studies being done around religious practices we've been following for years and more importantly, what the data and outcome shows. For a bit more info, I recommend taking a look at this study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5240069/ |

Then we should have conclusive evidence?
