In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Low sugar and carbohydrate diet, Time Limited Eating, and 1 other intervention for Obesity, Childhood. Completed, enrolled 50 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators propose a randomized controlled trial in 90 children (age 13-21y) with obesity recruited from clinical programs at the Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA). Patients will be randomized to one of three treatment groups for a 12-week intervention: Group 1) Low sugar and carbohydrate diet (LSC, \<90 gm carbohydrate (CHO)/day, \<25 gm added sugar/day) + blinded CGM (used to monitor adherence and glycemic outcomes without real time feedback). Group 2) LSC+TLE (16-hour fast/8-hour feed for 3 days per week) + blinded CGM, Group 3) LSC+TLE+ real time feedback via CGM (to evaluate effect of providing CGM data on intervention efficacy).
