Summary

This study is designed to observe the effect of 5:2 intermittent calorie restriction (fasting 2 days each week) on liver fat content in MASLD patients with abnormal blood glucose.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Intermittent calorie restriction (ICR)

Participants in ICR group were instructed to ensure 2 successive days of fasting-mimicking and 5 days of recovery per week. On fasting-mimicking days, the participants were instructed to consume approximately 500 kcal/day and they were provided with plant-based meal replacement to improve adherence and ensured adequate intake of micronutrients. In the rest 5 days of recovery per week, participants were allowed to consume their usual diet. Participants will receive dietary counseling from experienced nutritionists and eat a balanced diet (macronutrient distribution of approximately 10-15% protein, 55-65% carbohydrate and 20-30% fat).They are required to write daily dietary log. Besides, they are required to maintain their exercise routines and record their daily steps using a unified pedometer (Redmi Smart Band, Xiaomi Corporation, China). The use of drugs affecting blood glucose and LFC will be avoided.

BEHAVIORAL

Continuous calorie restriction (CCR)

Participants in CCR group were instructed to consume the prescribed calories (25 kcal / kg × \[height (cm) - 100\] kg) every day by eating conventional food without time restriction. Participants will receive dietary counseling from experienced nutritionists and eat a balanced diet (macronutrient distribution of approximately 10-15% protein, 55-65% carbohydrate and 20-30% fat).They are required to write daily dietary log. Besides, they are required to maintain their exercise routines and record their daily steps using a unified pedometer (Redmi Smart Band, Xiaomi Corporation, China). The use of drugs affecting blood glucose and LFC will be avoided.
