Research Abstract |
Short-term dietary restriction resulted in the reduction of basal metabolic rate, which positively associated with the level of dietary restriction. The magnitude of reduction in body weight is smaller than that in basal metabolic rate. In addition, among fasting, high-fat meal intake, and standard meal intake group, parasympathetic nerve activity raised, heart rate fell, and VLF and total power of autonomic nerve system raised in fasting group. These results raise the possibility of anti-depression. Furthermore, vegetable tablets intake showed the inhibition of LF/HF as an indicator of sympathetic nerve activity, which suggests a calm effect.
