Succinate Modulation as a Biochemical Correlate of Metabolic and Neurobehavioral Changes Associated With Intermittent Fasting in Obesity

Obesity significantly impacts the central nervous system (CNS), increasing the risks of neuropsychiatric disorders and dementia. Intermittent fasting (IF) shows promise for improving peripheral and CNS health, but its mechanisms are unclear.
