    In the study the type of Intermittent Fasting used was 3 days on 3 days off,

    That is extreme I dont think anyone practices that kind of IF.

    Even alternate day Intermittent Fasting is rare.

    I saw this study on pubmed. I haven't actually looked at the effects of IF before. Is there anything that backs these findings up?

    In rats? The fat pad of the epididymis? Would this even translate to fat tissue in general - and in humans?

    thats not really "alternate" day fasting is it? Your eating once EVERY day.

    Alternate day fasting pertains to going atleast a full waking day without food consumption, for example, fast on monday, ad lib food on tuesday, fast on wednesday, ad lib on Thursday etc etc.

    A search on pubmed with Fsp27 brings up only 42 papers, so this is clearly not a well researched or studied protein in general.

    Although the rodent knockout studies show FSP27 deficiency results in leaness and increased energy expenditure, there was 1 study showing how one of its main functions is to regulate lipid droplet size, they show a picture of 2 fat cells with and without FSP27, and the one without has many many small lipid droplets. I have to say that picture did not strike me as being a healthy fat cell, ( even though it had increased mitochondria )

    I do that quite often for 6-8 months in a row. I'm no BB though.
