Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The aims of this proposal are to compare the effects of 4-h versus 6-h time restricted feeding (TRF) on body weight and metabolic disease risk factors in adults with obesity. To test the study objectives, a 10-week randomized, controlled, parallel-arm trial, divided into 2 consecutive periods: (1) 2-week baseline period; and (2) 8-week TRF weight loss period, will be implemented. Obese subjects will be randomized to 1 of 3 groups: (1) 4-h TRF, (2) 6-h TRF, or a no-intervention control group. This study will be the first randomized controlled trial to compare 4-h versus 6-h TRF.
