The study shows that intermittent fasting triggers a stress response that can inhibit or even kill hair follicle stem cells, crucial for hair regrowth.
Ömer Yilmaz expressed surprise at the findings, stating we expect fasting to benefit most cell types, but this study shows the opposite effect.
Intermittent fasting, while popular for weight loss, doesn't uniformly benefit all tissues and cell types, challenging previous assumptions.
The research indicates that while fasting may increase lifespan in mice, it may come with unintended consequences like stunted hair growth.
