Study tests if eating within a daily window works better than counting calories

NCT ID NCT04259632

Summary

This study tested if time-restricted eating (eating only during a specific daily window) works as well as traditional calorie counting for weight loss in obese adults. Researchers followed 115 participants for 12 weeks to see which approach led to better weight loss, fat reduction, and metabolic health improvements. The goal was to find a more sustainable alternative to calorie counting, which many people find difficult to maintain long-term.
