They explained what a cr is and then went on to break down different forms of fasting
They talking about the differences in cr and fasting. Did you even read that entire article?G, notice how they are talking about autophagy in regards to fasting and calorie restriction but then ONLY list fasting protocols?
What Are the Different Forms of Calorie Restriction and Fasting?
Calorie restriction is a consistent pattern of reducing average daily caloric intake, while fasting regimens primarily focus on the frequency of eating. The fasting diet may or may not involve a restriction in the intake of calories during non-fasting times.
There are a variety of fasting diets, sometimes called "intermittent fasting." You may have read about:
- Time-restricted feeding—Meals are consumed within a limited number of hours (such as 6-8 hours) each day, with nothing consumed during the other hours.
- Alternate-day fasting—Eating is unrestricted every other day, and no or minimal calories can be consumed on the days in between.
- 5:2 eating pattern—Eating is unrestricted for 5 straight days each week, followed by 2 days of restricted caloric intake.
- Periodic fasting—Caloric intake is restricted for multiple consecutive days, such as 5 days in a row once a month, and unrestricted on all other days.
None of those bullet points have anything to do with CR...
