ONCLUSIONS
Among patients with obesity, a regimen of time-restricted eating was not more beneficial with regard to reduction in body weight, body fat, or metabolic risk factors than daily calorie restriction.

This jibes with what Dr. Attia said in that podcast. |
It's fascinating how journalists with no ability other than to form words and summarize a study can unintentionally distort the issues. I know that cutting calories for me is not sustainable, slows my metabolism, and causes cravings that are hard to resist and lead to poor food choices. When I eat healthy whole food that doesn't spike my blood glucose, I can eat in a small window of time without any of the other issues and get the benefits of stable blood glucose and autophagy. It took a bit of time to adapt, but I've been doing it for years with much success. Where can people find that information from the large media sources?
