The American Heart Association has issued a scientific statement about the cardiometabolic health effects of specific eating patterns: skipping breakfast, intermittent fasting, meal frequency, and timing of eating occasions. Data suggest that irregular eating patterns appear less favorable for achieving a healthy cardiometabolic profile. Daily breakfast consumption may decrease the risk of adverse effects related to glucose and insulin metabolism. Both alternate-day fasting and periodic fasting may be effective for weight loss, for lowering triglyceride concentrations, and for lowering blood pressure (a minimum weight loss of 6% may be required to see an effect). Intermittent fasting may also be effective for decreasing fasting insulin and insulin resistance. Epidemiological findings suggest a potential detrimental effect of late meals on cardiometabolic health. Intentional eating with mindful attention to the timing and frequency of eating occasions could lead to healthier lifestyle and cardiometabolic risk factor management.

美国心脏协会发布了关于特定饮食方式对心脏代谢健康影响的科学阐述：略过早餐，间歇性禁食，用餐频率和进食时机。资料表明无规则饮食方式似乎不太有利于实现健康的心脏代谢特征。每天食用早餐可以降低与葡萄糖和胰岛素代谢有关不利影响的风险。隔日交替禁食和周期性禁食均可有效减轻体重，降低甘油三酯浓度和降低血压（可能需要最小6％的体重减轻以观察到降压效果）。间歇性禁食也可有效降低空腹胰岛素和胰岛素抵抗。流行病学资料提示晚进餐对心脏代谢健康的潜在有害影响。注意饮食，注意用餐时间和频率可使生活方式以及对心脏代谢危险因素的管理更健康。来源：http://circ.ahajournals.org/
