Yup!
Intermittent fasting increases fat metabolism (especially the killer- visceral fat) and will help with brain function.
I'll have an indeapth artical about this. But Great Job. Keep it up!

I´m not sure about the boosting fat metabolism thing. Because if studies havent shown, at least up until now, that IF helps in loosing more fat than having no restriction in meal timing, that means there is no advantage in IF and therefore also no boosting of the fat metabolism. If it would boost fat metabolism there would be studies showing a difference between losing fat while IF and non-IF.
But i would love to read your article on this point though. Be sure to tag me in the comments pls ;)
Look past the subtle mistakes.

"We report that when C57BL/6 mice are maintained on an intermittent fasting..."
--> Mice. I do no doubt beneficial effects of IF on the human body, but dont reference a study about mice when talking about human beings lol
And i also believe that the benefiting function of IF on body functions is only shown in rats/animals and not yet in human beings. But as i already said in my other comment. I´d love to read your article on this.
Alright, With in the near future I'll write a piece with references.
Point of advice, your body is an adaptive organism. Therefore these studies will reference internal validity and little external validity.
That's something you should consider. Even if you have set up a stud; it will never reflect an individuals reaction to the regime/food/exercise.
Why not? Simply because our bodies reaction to a specific stimulus is not solely based on what is taken/done. It's a whole life endeavor. Be sure to understand that personalized everything will be a thing.
Hope to get on this asap.
I am studying biology at university so i know that the body is an adaptive organism. But, i can say things and say that they are true if there actually are studies (with good studysetup of course)and a body of evidence for it. Your are trying to tell me that if there is a body of evidence showing that IF doesnt boost fat metabolism and is not significantly superior to any other "eating method" (sry i dont know any better word for this, as i am not a native englisch speaker) it doesnt apply to people that didnt participate in the study? so, for you studies dont show anything and are completely useless? I don´t think so.
Maybe after reading your article with references to the things that you are trying to prove and point out, maybe i will change my mind.
Eventhough the body is an adaptive organism, that doesnt change any humans biochemic reactions within the bodies. Of course if every human would react to one stimulus in another way studies wouldnt show anything, but as we are all humans and live by the same principles and all the same biochemical reactions studies can and should be applied to the real world/external world and have external validity.
Think of it as changing the fuel rather than "boosting the metabolism". for example HIIT uses glycogen from the blood and muscles at a higher percentage than beta-oxidation. With that being said you'll still burn more fat (24-36 hours after exercising).
This just means your basal metabolic rate changes its source of fuel.
Epigenetics, and repsonses as a result of enviromental influences plays a huge role.
I'm a molecular kinesiologist.
I'll write something soon with the appropriate references- when I get the chance.
This is just referencing how personalized medicine is the way to go.
