Could daily fasting be easier than counting calories?

NCT ID NCT04259632

Summary

This study tested whether a daily fasting approach (limiting eating to a shorter window each day) works as well as traditional calorie counting for weight loss in obese adults. Researchers followed 115 participants for 12 weeks to compare changes in weight and body fat. The goal was to find a more sustainable alternative to standard dieting, which many people struggle to maintain long-term.
