In this webinar, three experts presented research on intermittent fasting and time-restricted eating in human and animal models. The speakers described biological, psychosocial, and behavioral mechanisms associated with each time-based dietary approach as well as their impact on cancer outcomes. The webinar concluded with Q&A.
National Cancer Institute (NCI) staff also provided information about the recently published NCI provocative question #2 related to intermittent fasting: https://provocativequestions.cancer.gov/2020-rfas-and-pqs.
