Diets and Fasting

Eating patterns used as interventions rather than as cuisine — fasting protocols, the named diets, and the specific dietary approaches taken for a condition. Where a diet has been tested in trials the pages give the numbers; where its reputation runs ahead of the evidence, they say that instead.

A remedy is filed here by what it claims to do, not by a judgement that it works. This section deliberately covers practices whose own pages conclude they do not — read the page before the category name.
