Time Restricted Eating as a Viable Alternative to Caloric Restriction for Treating Hyperglycemia in a Population with Type 2 (T2DM) diabetes
Recruiting
The purpose of the study is to see how restricting the eating window (called time-restricted eating) might affect eating habits, weight, and blood measures compared to reducing food intake. Time-restricted eating means that people would have a daily 8 hour eating window during which time they can eat whatever they want. Outside of the eating window, people would only take water and your medications. We expect that participants will be in this research study for about 7 months.
