Watch any nature show and you will see fasting is just how things work for mammals and carnivores. They don't have grocery stores or refrigerators.
Before IF became a craze there was a very low budget documentary on Netflix call "The Science of Fasting" . i beielve its theory/fact of we, as humans, evolved eating 1 large meal every few days/weeks... only that past 200 years we have had food on demand. And our bodies do things when we do not eat that hardens its cells and this comes from how we evolved.
The documentary goes into a hospital up in Russia where a Russian doctor started researching this when one of his crazy patients basically cured himself by not eating for 3 or 4 weeks, back around WW2. It has stories of not eating curing psychoses, helped with chemotherapy and cancer.

That study is silly...
For those who have been doing IF for years unknowingly by not eating breakfast and somewhat following the 16/8 method, I would recommend you really try the 16hrs of absolutely nothing but water. I believe most who think they fast for 16hrs don't actually do it and may snack on something or have drink something other than water, black coffee, or tea.
When you get into a month of being very strict with the 16/8 you will notice a significant change to mood, weight, sleep, all of the things.

This actually make sense. Fasting works by allowing your liver time to offload fats and sugars, and nasty things it's being forced to clean up, while no new loads of fat and sugar are coming in. Essentially a liver detox, and there's a whole host of positive side effects throughout the rest of your cellular functions that come with that.
For folks eating the standard processed American diet based on the food pyramid this can have a huge positive impact, allowing their liver to rid itself of excess sugars and toxins, and unhealthy fats.
Also, prayer and fasting are two of the most effective weapons against the devil.
