StackHealth / Intermittent fasting offers no clear weight‑loss advantage, studies confirm

Intermittent fasting probably doesn’t help with weight loss

newscientist - Intermittent fasting appears to be no better than doing nothing when it comes to helping people who are overweight or have obesity lose weight

AI Summary: Large-scale reviews and new analyses find intermittent‑fasting regimens deliver weight‑loss results comparable to standard dietary advice or doing nothing special. The evidence undercuts the popular hype: fasting patterns don’t reliably outperform conventional approaches, and benefits often reflect overall calorie reduction rather than any magic timing effect.
