( CNN) Whether you watch what you eat by counting your daily calories or practicing intermittent fasting, either approach can be effective for weight loss, a new obesity analyse proposes.

Intermittent or alternate-day fasting requires routinely alternating between eating little or no food and then banquet in your daily diet. It has become a developing weight loss tendency in the US, the UK and other regions around the world.

The small analyse, published in the periodical JAMA Internal Medicine on Monday, suggests that there is no significant difference between fasting and the other popular weight loss strategy of simply curtailing how many daily calories you consume.
