Time-restricted eating allows individuals to eat their food when they are most insulin sensitive, typically in the morning.

“also you're getting the benefit of eating your food when you're the most insulin sensitive so there's been studies comparing for example men that ate the same identical meal in terms of their macro nutrient composition the caloric contra they ate them for breakfast or for lunch or for dinner and insulin insulin sensitivity blood glucose levels all those things were measured and they were the most insulin sensitive in the morning and the lease incident insulin sensitive in the evening even though there's identical meals and that's because insulin sensitivity blood glucose all these things all these genes that are regulating a variety of processes they're on a circadian rhythm meaning they're they're active during certain times in the day and the thing that starts that clock is the intake of food so the first calorie you take in is going to start that clock from ticking and so at that early point is going to be when you can be the most insulin sensitive and as the day goes on that's sort of the sensitivity goes down”
