Paper reference
Time-restricted eating (TRE) has become a very popular method for managing body weight, but the scientific evidence is not conclusive. This Journal Club session will review a recently-published article ‘Effect of time restricted eating on body weight and fasting glucose in participants with obesity: results of a randomized, controlled, virtual clinical trial’, with a discussion about the pros and cons of TRE.
We will be covering tools and techniques to help you best understand and appraise this research paper, through both the critical examination and discussion led by our nutrition guest expert and chaired by Dr Caroline Childs.
