Discussion

Cohort study shows fasting improves lipid profile in healthy adults, suggesting cardiovascular benefits.

Fasting significantly reduced mean total cholesterol levels from 193.6 mg/dL to 179.3 mg/dL.
Triglyceride levels dropped from 148.2 mg/dL to 132.1 mg/dL, indicating improved lipid metabolism.
LDL-C levels decreased from 117.5 mg/dL to 110.2 mg/dL, while HDL-C levels increased from 47.9 mg/dL to 52.4 mg/dL.
Fasting improved the LDL/HDL ratio, suggesting a reduced risk of atherogenesis in healthy individuals.

Noureen et al. (2025) studied this question.
