-his article is informative

-stays objective and adds history to the topic of "intermittent fasting"

-can try to break up the paragraph into two different sections so it's easier to follow the information flow

-add real life examples of people who have benefited off intermittent fasting

Hi Jared! You’ve chosen an interesting topic for your project! Like Nicole already mentioned in the Sandbox it would be nice to add an paragraph talking about the history of intermittent fasting and shift the focus from what the research is saying to include more historical aspects.

At some point in the text I think that there is not a neutral tone, which you might want to look over as it is important for Wikipedia articles. I’m not an expert in the field but I thought that there was not yet convincing evidence of the benefits of intermittent fasting in humans. Moreover, in some parts of the text I interpret it as these research results have been shown in humans, but isn’t the majority of existing research conducted in animals? For instance, when you talk about Alzheimer’s in the final paragraph. Maybe just some paraphrasing would make things clearer?

Some of the citations I would switch to include the actual studies. For instance, it would look better citing the references that Thomas DeLauer is using rather then referring to his site.

We could talk more on Thursday ☺ --Emmiesoderstrom (talk) 03:25, 15 November 2017 (UTC)Emmie--Emmiesoderstrom (talk) 03:25, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
