美国心脏协会（AHA）三月十八日发表了一篇文章，题为“91% 的心血管死亡与8小时限时饮食有关", 此文一发布就引起了许多读者的质疑。不少读者写信给这些医生询问他们对此文的看法和分析。看看以下这几位医生且他们本人也是间歇性禁食者是怎样分析的这篇通讯的？

Key Takeaway: data was collected between years 2003-2018 (long before fasting was popularized).  The 414 subjects who supposedly “fasted” for 16 hours a day were much unhealthier than the 11,00 subjects who reported eating in a 12-16 hour window. (They smoked more, weighed more, etc…)  In fact, 20% of the 414 subjects died over the study period. Bottom line: this study does NOT show fasting will increase your risk of heart disease.

要点：数据收集于 2003 年至 2018 年之间（早在禁食普及之前）414位 据称每天“禁食”16 小时的受试者比 11,00 名报告在 12 至 16 小时内进食的受试者非健康得多。 (他们抽烟更多、体重更重等等……）事实上，414 名受试者中有 20% 在研究期间死亡。 底线：这项研究并未表明禁食会增加患心脏病的风险。
