Official title Time-restricted Eating, Window Timing, Type 2 Diabetes Status and Sex on Glycemic Control
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06118931
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The study wants to know if the start and stop times of a 9‑hour eating window change blood‑sugar control, and whether the effect is different for men and women.
- Who it's for
- Adults who are obese and have type 2 diabetes or are at risk for it (prediabetes).
- What's involved
- You will eat all your meals and snacks within a 9‑hour window each day (different start times are tested) and only drink water or other non‑calorie drinks outside that window. No other diet rules are imposed, and you will have regular visits for blood‑sugar tests and other check‑ups.
