There is a blurry gray area between intermittent fasting and time restricted feeding. The study here is somewhere in that zone, as the participants did eat daily, with less fasting time between meals than would be the case for, say, alternate day fasting. Time spent hungry does appear to be influential to the outcome, but perhaps less so than overall calories consumed. Inevitably, people eat fewer calories if given less time in which to consume calories. Unsurprisingly, eating less improves metrics in people with metabolic syndrome, a condition achieved by being overweight as a result of eating too much. The point of interest here is the specific metrics measured and the results: by now we all know that <a href="https://www.fightaging.org/arch…
