"A study of over 20,000 adults found that those who followed an 8-hour time-restricted eating schedule, a type of intermittent fasting, had a 91% higher risk of death from cardiovascular disease.

People with heart disease or cancer also had an increased risk of cardiovascular death.

Compared with a standard schedule of eating across 12-16 hours per day, limiting food intake to less than 8 hours per day was not associated with living longer."

    Why people only ate within eight hours on these selected days remains completely unclear.

    If you don’t eat breakfast it’s not that hard for the rest of the eating to fall within 8 hours

      Intermittent fasting works really well for people like me who tend to binge eat at night. If I can’t eat at night, that eliminates the binging.
