NCT04143971

Brief Summary

some studies have shown similar effects of intermittent fasting and continuous caloric restriction on body weight and plasma lipid profile, but there is still a wide controversy. Therefore,due to limited human studies and the lack of a study on hypertriglyceridemic patients, the present study aimed to determine the effects of using low-calorie diets in comparison with continuous caloric restriction on weight loss and plasma lipid profile in obese or overweight hypertriglyceridemic patients.
