Abstract Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common chronic liver diseases, and it is characterized by a series of fatty liver diseases that can lead to severe liver disease. Although no therapeutic drug has been approved as an effective therapy for NAFLD to date, dietary changes and physical activity are thought to be the cornerstone of NAFLD management. For this reason, some articles are available to analyze the studies done so far using various modifications of intermittent fasting (IF) among animals and patients with NAFLD. Data from preclinical and clinical trials suggested that IF positively impacts inflammatory and metabolic markers in both animals and humans. Inflammation and oxidative stress are the major risk factors involved in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. IF has been shown to have positive benefits in alleviating metabolic disorders, promoting the browning of white tissue, resetting circadian rhythm, and activating autophagy of cells. This review is intended to provide a detailed synopsis of the protocols, potential mechanisms of action, and supporting evidence for IF in NAFLD. We will highlight what is currently known about IF approaches in NAFLD treatments in clinical populations with mechanism insight from animal studies, and the safety concerns in certain patient groups. Graphical Abstract The protocols of intermittent fasting (IF) are various. Data from trials suggested that IF positively impacts both humans and animals. IF has been shown to have potential treatments for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. |
