Impact of Long-Term Fasting on Skeletal Muscle: Structure, Energy Metabolism and Function Using P/H MRS and MRI.
Fasting shows promise for public health, but concerns about muscle loss hinder its acceptance, particularly among the elderly. We explored the impact of long-term fasting (12โdays, 250โkcal/day) on muscle structure, metabolism and performance. We prospectively assessed muscle volume, composition, relaxometry...
