That's a pretty long fasting interval:

"is a new proposed dietary approach based on [intermittent fasting] involving five fasting days followed by 10 days of reintroducing everyday food items."

And when they say "everyday food items" they apparently mean a special diet:

The diet contains daily foods such as wheat, barley, rice, rye and oat, "and features reduced glycemic loads, calories, and carbohydrates, as well as increased unsaturated fatty acids," the scientists said.

It doesn't appear that they tested a group that had the special diet but without the intermittent fasting.
