NCT ID NCT04992611
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how the timing of sleep affects what teenagers eat. Researchers wanted to understand why getting more sleep helps some teens eat less, but not others. They studied 190 healthy teens aged 14-18 to see if matching sleep to their natural body clock improves their diet and helps prevent obesity.
