@Tfmonkey Here’s an article for Wednesday. From the goddamn American Heart Association: intermittent fasting causes heart attacks
What if fat people are more like!y to do intermitent fasting
So even though intermitent fasting reduces the heart attack rate for fat people, fat people are more likely to get a heart attack so there is a correlation between intermittent fasting and obesity and heart attack
@shortstories @Mr_Mister @Tfmonkey Who follow this diet are healthy or people that need to change their diet or they will die.
So they probably counted people that start this diet but do not change much their bad diet or they claim they do. But do not follow the diet and die.
The mystery is not necessarily solved
It depends on if the study involved assigning people to fast or not fast vs people who voluntarily chose to fast
If they did not voluntarily choose to but were assigned to a control or experiment group than the percent of people with a high body fat percent will be different than if it was looking at people who chose to intermittent fast on their own
@shortstories @Mr_Mister @Tfmonkey
And would depend what they ate.
They might have ssid if I am only going to eat in a narrow window then I will eat more desserts and fat fried foods that I enjoy
@Stahesh @Mr_Mister @Tfmonkey
Another possibility is
fat people are going to get stressed out in the short run if they do not eat all the time
And the Stress will increase their risk of heart attack in the short run
Even though a diet would decrease it in the long run
If you are not used to fasting and are afraid it can do things to how your heart beat patterns and lungs breathing patterns fast
