Effect of Modified Alternate-Day Fasting (ADF) in contrast with Calorie Restriction (CR) on inflammatory index and coagulation factors in metabolic syndrome patients.
The purpose of present study was to investigate and compare the impact of Modified Alternate- Day Fasting versus daily Calorie Restriction on inflammatory index and coagulation factors in patients with metabolic syndrome.
Design
Clinical randomized trial, sham controlled clinical trial with parallel groups
Settings and conduct
Subjects were recruited from the Sediqe- Tahere Heart Center. after classification and matched according to age, sex and BMI, these subjects were randomly divided into two groups. a group of subjects received Modified ADF and another group received Calorie Restriction for 8 weeks. At the beginning and the end of the study outcomes were measured. The energy requirement of each person was calculated by Mifflin equation.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: patients with metabolic syndrome, high BMI, no weight changes more and less than 5% for 3 months, no fasting for 3 months.
Exclusion criteria: smoking, history of disease, Use of drugs that affect on inflammation and coagulation
Intervention groups
In Modified ADF group, subjects consumed very low calorie diet (75% energy restriction) during the 3 fast days (Saturday, Monday, Wednesday) and then ate diet that providing 100% of their energy needs on each feed day (3 days a week). In Friday subjects consumed ad libitum without limitation.
In Calorie Restriction group, subjects consumed 75% energy needs in each day.
Main outcome variables
inflammatory index (hs- CRP) and coagulation factors (PT, a- PTT, fibrinogen)

Description
During 8-week ADF period, subjects consumed very low calorie diet (75% energy restriction) during the 3 fast days (Saturday, Monday, Wednesday) and then ate diet that providing 100% of their energy needs on each feed day (3 days a week). In Friday subjects consumed ad libitum without limitation. ADF subjects were provided with meals on each fast day (ranging from 400-600 kcal), and consumed ad libitum at home on the feed day. The feed and fast days began at midnight each day, and all fast day meals were consumed between 12.00 pm and 2.00 pm to ensure that each subject was undergoing the same duration of fasting All foods were prepared in the home. Subjects were permitted to consume calorie- free foods such as water, tea, green tea, coffee without sugar (< 400 mg caffeine per day), non-starchy vegetable (such as lettuce, cucumberو tomato) and sugar free gums on the fast day and were encouraged to drink plenty of water.

Description
Control group: In Calorie Restriction group, subjects consumed 75% energy needs in each day for 8 weeks and includes 3 main meals and 2 snacks. All subjects in two groups were required to prepare all of their meals at home. The baseline energy requirements for the subjects were assessed by Mifflin equation. Daily dietary carbohydrate, fat and protein accounted for 52, 30 and 18% of ingested energy, respectively.
