Intermittent fasting or calorie deficit diet, which is better for weight loss?
A new study from the University of Colorado School of Medicine finds intermittent fasting more effective for weight loss than daily calorie-restrictive diets. Over 12 months, those on a 4:3 fasting plan lost 7.6% of body weight compared to 5% in the calorie restriction group. Intermittent fasting also showed better cardiometabolic outcomes without daily calorie counting.
