Abstract Aims To evaluate the molecular mechanisms involved in intermittent fasting 16/8 (16/8 IF), a widespread dietary practice adopted worldwide that consists of 16 h and 8 feeding. Methods Obese mice were fasted daily from 6 am to 10 pm. Food intake, body weight, energy expenditure measured. Molecular investigated using ELISA, western blot, qPCR white brown adipose tissues. Glucose homeostasis was also evaluated. Ucp1 knockout ob/ob utilized. Results The IF regimen improved glucose...
