Fasting Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effects of Fast Bar on Facilitating Prolonged Fasting - a Randomized, Controlled, Parallel-arm Study
This study evaluates how Fast Bar(TM), a specially formulated energy bar, when consumed with coffee or tea, affects the physiological condition in participants after an overnight fasting. Participants will fast for 19 hours (Fast Group), consume a Fast Bar in the night (Night Bar Group) or in the morning (Bar+Coffee and Bar+Tea Groups) after an approximately 15-hour overnight fasting. Participants will be assessed for physiological parameters associated with fasting.
Interest in fasting-based programs (i.e. intermittent fasting) for improvement of health and longevity continues to grow. The short-term fasting (e.g. 12 to 48 hours in duration) utilized in many intermittent fasting programs are considered safe, but some individuals may find them subjectively difficult. As such, the question of whether the benefits of fasting can be obtained while small amounts of food are consumed is of substantial interest. One commercially available product that is designed to be consumed during periods of intermittent fasting is the Fast Bar™, which stems out of the well-researched fasting-mimicking diet to assist prolonged fasting. The unique formulation of the Fast Bar™ is hypothesized to minimize deviations in metabolic biomarkers associated with a fasting state. This may ease the burdens associated with extended period of fasting. The objective of this study is to evaluate the metabolic and subjective effects of Fast Bar, when consumed with coffee or tea, after a prolonged period of fasting. ;
