The intermittent fasting and protein pacing diet involved 5–6 days of 4 daily meals for women, and 5 meals a day for men, spaced 4 hours apart, each containing 25–50 grams of protein.
The intermittent fasting and protein pacing group ate four meals containing 25-50 g of protein per day. Their total macronutrient composition was 35% carbohydrate, 30% fat, and 35% protein intake.
The concept of "protein-sparing modified fast" (PSMF) was described by George Blackburn in the early 1970s as an intensive weight-loss diet designed to mitigate the harms associated with protein-calorie malnutrition [8] and nitrogen losses induced by either acute illness or hypocaloric diets in patients with obesity, in order to adapt the patient's metabolism sufficiently to use endogenous fat ...
Fasting is an ancient tradition, having been practiced by many cultures and religions over centuries. [9] [13] [14]Therapeutic intermittent fasts for the treatment of obesity have been investigated since at least 1915, with a renewed interest in the medical community in the 1960s after Bloom and his colleagues published an "enthusiastic report".

This intermittent fasting schedule requires longer periods of fasting. “For five consecutive days, you eat as you wish,” Gans says. “Then, for two non-consecutive days, you consume only ...
Pacing is an activity management technique for managing a long-term health condition or disability, aiming to maximize what a person can do while reducing, or at least controlling, any symptoms that restrict activity. [citation needed] Pacing is commonly used to help manage conditions that cause chronic pain or chronic fatigue. [1]: 134
Pancreatic polypeptide cells are most active and secrete more pancreatic polypeptide after a meal with high protein, fasting, physical activity, and acute hypoglycemia. These same cells are inhibited by somatostatin, an inhibitory gastrointestinal hormone, and the presence of glucose. [7] Pancreatic Polypeptide From a Mouse Cell
Lactose is a disaccharide sugar composed of galactose and glucose that is found in milk. Lactose can not be absorbed by the intestine and needs to be split in the small intestine into galactose and glucose by the enzyme called lactase; unabsorbed lactose can cause abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, gas, and nausea.
