NCT ID NCT03504683
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether limiting when you eat (time-restricted eating) can improve blood sugar control and heart health in adults with prediabetes. 108 participants were assigned to eat only between 8am-3pm, 1pm-8pm, or a normal 12-hour eating window for 8 weeks. All meals were provided. The goal was to see if changing meal timing alone, without changing what you eat, can help prevent type 2 diabetes.
