🟣The American Heart Association had a big ole meeting and one of the researchers present shared their work. It's an abstract of a study, the full study has yet to be released. The researchers found a 91% increased risk of dying of cardiovascular disease of those that restrict their eating window down to less than 8 hours. Fascinating find. In this video, I break the study down.

Factors that may also play a role in health, outside of daily duration of eating and cause of death, were not included in the analysis." So they KNEW the results were bogus.

That's how almost all studies on diet are though, because the only way to do a real and perfect study on diet is to have all the participants permanently live in and have their diet strictly controlled by the scientists without outside influence. This isn't feasable at all for any longer studies that would require several years to decades to see actual effects on health over time. Any studies on diet like that have to be done short term which isn't always as helpful since diets can take a very long time to have certain effects. So pretty much all of our scientific data on diet comes from surveys.

I'd wager that there's a high correlation between people who are on an 8 hour fasting diet and those who are obese and thus have higher risk of cardiovascular disease.

My first thought was how many people are dieting because of concerns about weight, previous health issues, family history, etc. If everyone woke up tomorrow believing that wearing blue could seriously reduce your risk of CVD, and then a study was done a year later about CVD in people wearing blue vs other colors, you'd probably see a higher percentage of deaths from people wearing blue, so does wearing blue increase your risk? Correlation can sometimes point in the right direction, but oftentimes the two correlated things are caused by a third factor, and have no direct relationship to each other.

It's a way to extrapolate info and help find a correlation. It's really hard to get year long dietary information from enough people to make a observational study worthwhile. But people can more or less remember what they ate in the last day, so you get a much more accurate recount, but only for a day. Now this can depend a good bit on what the questionnaire asks and how it asks it. For example if it included "is this a normal day's eating habit?" It would greatly add to the validity. Now even though it's only one day, it's over twenty thousand days! That's enough to find clues of a correlation. We'll still have to wait to read the entire article, but if it seems somewhat legit it'll lead to other research to help isolate the correlation and/or find the mechanism.

Congrats for you! Now, I just gotta share... This just happened last week! Doc prescribes lots of meds: a statin (raises glucose), 2 different glucose meds (to lower glucose), something for heart... 5, in all. Instead of pill popping, I revolutionised my eating. Shed lots of weight but, more importantly, noticed all kinds of symptom reversals, particularly xanthomas shrinking down to nothing. It was time to do another lipid panel! Besides, there were signs my thyroid was off. At the doc's office: "Ghanged diet, lost weight, thyroid off, vanishing xanthomas... blood test?" him: "Ah, that means the meds are working! Let's see... what did I give you? Wait a minute! Your last prescription was 7 months ago and you didn't order a single refill!" He then said I don't get to decide whether I take medicine and promptly reauthorized all the meds he had prescribed before, including the same dosage for thyroid. Without knowing where my numbers are. He did order lab work, but only for thyroid and glucose. It was in range, thyroid was out of whack. Just goes to show, docs these days are in the pill-pushing business, not health.

Anyway, I only studied scientific research in undergrad and it's been a long time since then but I immediately knew, "He knows science." So many of my classes were about being able to distinguish real results from popular articles and scrutinizing scientific articles. To see so much more sensationalizing, fraud, and misinformation than what existed just a decade ago is terrifying. The Internet and the world at large need people like you ❤

Thanks for finding out the actual numbers of people who were involved and what those percentages really mean. I've heard the media hype around this study, after being on this intermittent fasting for a few months now. I did it because I was 5 pounds into the obese range, could not seem to lose weight, forever hungry, and showing symptoms of pre-diabetes. I'm so much better now. Lost 13 pounds (metabolism is still adjusting, obviously), more energy, lots of my mysterious aches and pains gone, eyesight recovering, my ability to concentrate vastly improved (I had thought I was experiencing symptoms of early onset dementia), and much, much more. I believe intermittent fasting has saved my life, not threatened it. So this study was puzzling indeed. How could I feel so much better in years if this was a risk to my heart (and I had been diagnosed with thickening of the arteries next to my heart several years previously. If CVD was going to take, I'm sure it would have done so by now, or I would have known signs it was progressing). It is, as you say, we don't know what other factors were affecting these people that died. We don't know what drove them to undertake intermittent fasting in the first place. Did they have other illnesses, other regimes that were even more extreme, eat nothing but junk food, were they vegans, , vegetarians, carnivores, high intensity exercise nuts, sleep deficiency, taking other medications, drinkers, smokers, recreational drugs, lounge lizards, played games day and night without ever seeing the sun? There are so many ways to live a life these days, and some ways are very extreme. Coupled with a genetic problem, an unresolved medical issue, the studies can be swayed in any direction. Personally, I'm going to continue with what's working for me. Intermittent fasting is my lifestyle now... Indeed, I'd be more interested in 'who' is paying for the AHA to undertake this study in the first place.

I appreciate that you take the time to point out a lot of flaws in the way this study is being handled in the media. It's so common with science reporting, especially health news. An abstract isn't even yet a paper. A single study isn't conclusive. Even a "91% increased risk" isn't like the risk goes from 4% to 95%. It's more like the risk went from 4% to nearly 8% One set of authors found something strange when examining survey data, and pointed it out to their peers because what it suggests seems counter-intuitive and maybe deserves some more in-depth research. This is the start of science, not it's conclusion. The media instead sees this as a big controversial headline that will grab clicks and eyeballs, so they push it without explaining any of the context. Because context is complicated and doesn't drive viewers to advertisers.

I wonder if they excluded people with eating disorders. Because someone with anorexia nervosa would probably consider themselves as someone who only eats in an 8 hour window in a study/survey taken like this. As most people know, eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of mental illnesses and that cause of death is usually cardiovascular related. I am calling out specifically anorexia nervosa but it could be other eating disorders as well, like atypical anorexia b/p type. Obviously we don't know right now if there was a way to weed out those with eating disorders, but I would be fascinated to find out more as this paper gets released.

Most people are on the 12-16, not even trying to be on that ratio. But those on an intermittent fasting ratio almost certainly chose to do so very intentionally. Why? Likely due to being overweight. So what am I getting at? If those people are 91% more at risk, it would seem ostensible to suspect that it's due to their prior lifestyle, the one that caused them to be overweight in the first place, that would be responsible for their death, not the intermittent fasting itself?

Muslims have been fasting for 30 consecutive days every year for the past 1000+ years, + possibly every monday and thursday as well without ever having any issues regarding it. I try not to be biased as much as possible but when i see something thats been done for so long and has proven health benefits suddenly gets shown in this lighting it just annoys me. You're gonna need to have impeccable evidence to convince most people that fasting is actually bad for you. In case anyone was wondering muslims fast from sunrise to sunset (no water, or anything) but as soon as its sunset you're supposed to break your fast as soon as possible, its considered bad to prolongue it. Usually we break our fast with dates. Also its ramadan right now so all the muslims you know are currently fasting these days.

Some do sure, but most don't, and that definitely was not true at all for the past 1000+ years, if this is the case nowadays then it's probably due to technology and how readily available food is to most countries. But if you think back then, when they used to live in the desert with the water source coming from a well and their food source was dates, a few fruits, and maybe lamb if you had the money. You really think they ate like that? I'm not trying to sound rude, I'm about to drive to my uni so I don't have much time to write this, but think about it. Most of the muslims that have been fasting for a long time have never had any problems, but now it's suddenly bad for you? That doesn't make sense. Though we do follow how the prophet used to break his fast, maybe that some sort of health benefit to counteract the things that could increase the chances of dying or whatever. We start by breaking our fast with dates as soon as possible, then eat a bit, and before sunrise you're also urged to eat dates again(different kind of date though) to give you another boost of energy before you begin fasting again Edit: the prophet did always say to eat enough, not till you're full, so there's that as well.

Dying from not eating, trauma, being poisoned, or other medical issues which can't be treated with tech available would be common alternatives in the past. The only thing a study like this is good for is to give hints as to which co-factors are relevant. If older people eat within a smaller window, that would be explanatory on its own. But maybe that's not the case, and instead we find out it's due to more stressful jobs or some other causal factor which makes both cardiac issues and eating within a small window more likely.
