This randomized controlled trial examined the effects of 10-hour time-restricted eating (TRE) versus a 16-hour usual eating pattern (UEP) on appetite and inflammation in 39 adults with obesity and prediabetes or diet-controlled type 2 diabetes over 12 weeks. Both groups experienced similar weight loss (2.7% TRE vs 2.5% UEP) and improvements in eating behavior, with no significant differences in appetite hormones or inflammatory markers.

Key findings

  • Weight loss was similar between TRE (2.7%) and UEP (2.5%) groups.
  • Both groups showed increased restraint and decreased disinhibition and hunger.
  • No significant between-group differences in appetite hormones or inflammatory markers were observed.

Why it matters

Understanding the impact of time-restricted eating on appetite and inflammation can inform dietary recommendations for patients with obesity and prediabetes, potentially aiding in weight management and metabolic health.
