Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Current guidelines for the prevention and treatment of obesity focus on caloric restriction diets and increasing physical activity, but long-term compliance to these strategies is poor. The timing of meal intake relative to the light-dark and sleep-wake cycle is rarely considered in metabolic health; and modifying meal timing is likely easier to implement in daily life than reducing caloric intake and/or increasing physical activity. This project will test whether restricting the timing of energy intake to a short-defined period during wakefulness can be used to improve fuel utilization patterns and enhance circadian rhythms in metabolic tissues to optimize health.
