First seen Dec 11, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 14 times
Summary
This study tested whether limiting when you eat (time-restricted eating) can help families with obesity lose weight. One parent and one child (ages 3-9) joined together. Some families ate only within a 10-12 hour window each day, while others focused on portion control and healthier food choices. Both groups got counseling and tools like scales and toothbrushes to track progress. The study lasted 12 weeks and measured changes in body mass index (BMI).
