First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested if limiting when you eat (time-restricted eating) helps families lose weight. 36 pairs of one parent and one child (ages 3-9) with obesity were assigned to either eat only within a 10-12 hour window each day or to follow standard diet advice. The program lasted 12 weeks and included coaching, Bluetooth scales, and toothbrushes to track progress. The main goal was to see if children's BMI changed.
