[fast5] Every Other Day Fasting vs. Fast 5?

I had assumed because I get nearly a 20 hour period of fasting every 24 hours that Fast 5 would be the most efficient form of fasting for fat loss.

Starting to question how this compares to Every Other Day 24 hour fasts with regular 3 meals/day on the alternate Non-fast day. Eat Stop Eat has a similar 2 or 3 24 hour fast days per week, then regular multiple meals on the eating days

Could it be true that fasting every single day for 19 hours is defeating our purpose with Fast 5 and we would be better to Alternate days of 24 hour Fasting? Been reading about some type of change in the body to activate a gene called SIRT-1 with the every other day fasting?
