Impact of early <scp>time‐restricted</scp> eating on diet quality, meal frequency, appetite, and eating behaviors: A randomized trial

Abstract

When combined with a weight-loss program, eTRE does not affect diet quality, meal frequency, eating restraint, emotional eating, or other eating behaviors relative to eating over more than a 12-hour window. Rather, participants implement eTRE as a simple timing rule by condensing their normal eating patterns into a smaller eating window.
