World Health Organization report notifies of the escalating global burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), projecting that it will become the major worldwide cause of death and disability by 2020. The South Asian countries have the highest rates of CVD globally. It is widely acknowledged that South Asians have 40-60% higher risk of CVD linked to mortality, compared with other populations. Multiple human population studies have established the concentration of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol as an independent, inverse predictor of the risk of having a cardiovascular event. Furthermore, HDLs have several well-documented functions with the potential to protect against cardiovascular disease. This study trial is designed to find out the role of intermittent fasting to improve the dyslipidemia and particularly increase the levels of HDL in general population. Investigators expect that the intermittent fasting will significantly enhance the level of HDL and reduce cardiovascular events in general population.
