Abstract

With the global prevalence of obesity and metabolic syndrome increasing, innovative therapeutic strategies are needed to reduce this prevalence. One approach being explored is Intermittent Fasting. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Intermittent Fasting in managing Metabolic Syndrome, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and cardiovascular risk factors. Literature searches were conducted for the period from 2010 to 2023. The analysis focused on randomized controlled trials, clinical studies, case reports, case series, and review articles assessing the effects of Intermittent Fasting on metabolic syndrome. It was found that Intermittent Fasting contributes to weight loss, improved insulin sensitivity, and modulation of leptin and adiponectin levels. Although some studies show results similar to traditional calorie restriction, Intermittent Fasting has shown potential in improving lipid profiles and reducing blood pressure. Despite its promising potential, the implementation of Intermittent Fasting in clinical practice requires a deeper understanding of its mechanisms. Furthermore, additional research is needed to evaluate the feasibility of adopting Intermittent Fasting as a lifestyle. Intermittent Fasting shows benefits in managing obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular risk factors.

Abstract

Aging is a natural process that is accompanied by a decrease in physical condition with a visible decrease in organ function. The aging process makes the elderly more prone to sleep disorders. Handling sleep disorders can be done in two ways, namely pharmacologically and non-pharmacologically. Non- pharmacological management is a safer alternative option, namely by soaking warm water feet. The benefits of warm water are to make the body more relaxed, get rid of muscle aches and stiffness, and lead to better sleep. The purpose of this study was to identify whether there is an effect of warm water foot bath on sleep quality in the elderly in the Balecatur Village Area. The type of research used is quasi experiment which is included in the pre test and post test one group design. Statistical data analysis used is Paired t- test and this research was conducted for 5 consecutive days. The sampling technique in this study was purposive sampling with 30 respondents. This study based on statistical tests obtained P value = 0.001, which means that there is a significant difference before and after warm water foot soak therapy. There is a significant effect of warm water foot soak on sleep quality in the elderly. Researchers hope that the elderly will always do this warm water foot soak as a necessity for themselves to reduce sleep quality problems
