Summary

This study looked at whether eating only within a 9-hour window each day (time-restricted eating) plus cutting calories is better for bone health, weight loss, and gut bacteria than just cutting calories alone. The study involved 49 overweight or obese postmenopausal women. Researchers measured bone density, body composition, and gut microbes to see if the timing of meals makes a difference.
