Summary

Current guidelines for the prevention and treatment of obesity focus on caloric restriction diets and increasing physical activity, but long-term compliance to these strategies is poor. The timing of meal intake relative to the light-dark and sleep-wake cycle is rarely considered in metabolic health; and modifying meal timing is likely easier to implement in daily life than reducing caloric intake and/or increasing physical activity. This project will test whether restricting the timing of energy intake to a short-defined period during wakefulness can be used to improve fuel utilization patterns and enhance circadian rhythms in metabolic tissues to optimize health.
