“…The IF ultimately triggers a process called “the metabolic switch”, which shifts the metabolism from glycogenolysis to the mobilization of fat via fatty acid oxidation and ketogenesis, resulting in related biochemical pathway changes [ 1 , 19 , 20 ]. It is widely accepted that these changes under IF positively contributes to human health in multiple areas [ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ]. Recent studies in the field of neuroscience have found scientific evidence that IF exerts protective effects against multiple neurological diseases and disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) [ 25 , 26 ], Parkinson’s disease (PD) [ 27 , 28 ], multiple sclerosis (MS) [ 29 , 30 ], epilepsy [ 31 , 32 ], ischemic stroke [ 33 , 34 , 35 ], and depression [ 36 , 37 , 38 ].…”
