Summary

A randomized controlled trial to determine the effectiveness of either morning or evening time-restricted feeding on body composition in sedentary, breakfast eating overweight and obese adults. Three parallel groups were assigned to either morning fasting (MF), evening fasting (EF), or a control group and asked to do the intervention for 6 weeks. Changes in body composition (change in weight, percent body fat percent, and percent lean body mass) are the primary outcome, and hunger and satiety ratings and physical activity are secondary outcome measures.
