In recent years, a variety of diets have emerged strongly as adjuvant therapies in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as gluten-reduced caloric restriction, mediterranean-style diets, vegan diets, ketone diet and intermittent fasting (IF) [1-5]. The latter can be understood as a chronic or intermittent reduction in food intake, never approaching the level of malnutrition or deprivation of essential nutrients [6]. IF diets are, therefore, personalized diets both in the duration of the fasting periods (generally 16-48 h),the periods of energy-restricted intake and the periods of normal food intake [7].
