Time-restricted eating improves measures of daily glycaemic control in people with type 2 diabetes
Authors' conclusion
Adhering 5 d/wk. to 9-h TRE improved glycaemic control in adults with T2D, independent of changes in physical activity or dietary intake.
Study context
- Population
- Adults with T2D (10 F/9 M; 50 ± 9 y, HbA1c 7.6% (60 mmol/mol), BMI ∼34 kg/m²)completed
- Participants
- 19 adults
- Comparison
- 9-h time-restricted eating (TRE) vs 2-wk Habitual period
- Primary endpoint
- 24-h glycaemic control by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) (mean 24-h glucose, 24-h total AUC, glucose variability)
- Follow-up
- 4 wk

| Daily eating window | −2 h 35 min | P < 0.001 |
Dietary energy intake, macronutrient composition, physical activity
- TRE did not alter dietary energy intake, macronutrient composition or physical activity
