Impact of Ramadan Intermittent Fasting on Oxidative Stress Measured by Urinary 15-F2t-Isoprostane by Mo'ez Al-Islam Ezzat Faris, Rand Nidal Hussein, Ref'at Ahmad Al-Kurd, Mohammed Ahmed Al-Fararjeh, Yasser Khalil Bustanji, Mohammad Khalil Mohammad

“…Results revealed that the urinary level of 15FIP measured at T0 was normal, while they showed a significantly (P<0.05) higher level when measured at T1 concomitant with a significant (P<0.05) increase in the body weight and total body fat percent. In conclusion, results suggest that increased body weight is associated with increased lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress, and the impact of RIF on oxidative stress is mediated by the changes in body weight at the end of the month.…”

Does insulin resistance contribute to the ‘unbrowning’ of brown adipose tissue? by Orien L. Tulp

“…Patients often experiment with any number of a broad assortment of dietary and exercise approaches to resolve their body weight and other issues with little success.
