First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 27 times
Summary
This study tested whether fasting for a longer period each night could help overweight people with early signs of blood cancer (MGUS, smoldering multiple myeloma, or smoldering Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia) lose weight and possibly prevent the disease from progressing. Twenty-three participants were randomly assigned to either a prolonged nightly fasting plan or a healthy lifestyle control group for 4 months. The main goal was to see changes in body composition and levels of abnormal proteins linked to cancer.
