NCT ID NCT03663530

Summary

This study aims to understand if eating meals at unusual times, like late at night, affects your body's ability to manage weight and energy. Researchers will compare what happens when people eat soon after waking versus several hours later, while keeping sleep schedules the same. The goal is to gather evidence that could lead to better lifestyle advice, especially for shift workers or people with irregular schedules.
