Fasting as in no carbs, no fat, no food at all, no water, or a combination? Acute for one day or acute for longer? Chronic for months or intermittent chronic? Affect the brain metabolically? Functionally? Mood wise? Cognitively? If cognitively, how? Memory? Reaction speed? All these things matter, otherwise it’s too general a question to answer.
