Abstract
This study investigated the effects of alternate-day fasting (ADF) on pubertal development in normal-weight and high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese female mice. ADF in normal-weight mice delayed puberty and reduced growth, while in HFD-fed mice, ADF prevented obesity and precocious puberty. The findings suggest a potential role for ADF in managing childhood obesity and precocious puberty, but further research is needed before clinical application.
