you probably want to think about and perhaps even engage in time, restricted feeding.

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
This is somewhat controversial, but there is growing evidence that, by restricting your feeding window to, say, 8 hours or 10 hours or 12 hours, that it is better than if you were to eat over a longer period of each 24-hour cycle.
trying to confine all your energy intake from solid and liquid food combined within a consistent window of 8 to 12 hours
it I think for many people it's a convenient way to eat because at least for people like me it's simpler to designate between portions of my day when I'm eating and portions of day my day when I'm not eating as opposed to eating portion control for other people portion control can work
what I think people take away from that is oh time restricted feeding isn't valuable which is not the case it I think for many people it's a convenient way to eat because at least for people like me it's simpler to designate between portions of my day when I'm eating and portions of day my day when I'm not eating as opposed to eating portion control for other people portion control can work but all of that is related to either maintenance or loss of weight none of it deals with the potential health benefits independent of weight loss yeah right
But today we're going to be very precise about how timerestricted feeding, it's very clear from both animal studies and human studies can have a very powerful and positive impact on everything from weight loss and fat loss to various health parameters.
to me it seems like if you create a window during the day where you're not eating that's probably a good thing and that in a fast of you know 16 or 24 hours you're probably gonna get some level about tofu G yeah and that's probably a good thing
if you can be iso if if the benefits of caloric restriction can be gained by compressing the feeding window with the same amount of calories that would be interesting too yeah it really looks like that's true
But what is surprising is in mice, if you do the same experiment, mice will chow down. They will eat the same number of calories as when they have free access to food. But in humans, these people in our study, they actually ate 20% less calories.
Time-restricted eating produces fat loss independent of total calories.
A 72-hour fast measurably improves autophagy markers in healthy adults.
One-meal-a-day (OMAD) eating patterns increase all-cause mortality in long-running cohort data.
Eating the largest meal before 3pm improves 24-hour glucose vs. an evening-heavy schedule, calorie-matched.
