New York TREAT (Time Restricted EATing) to Improve Cardiometabolic Health Study
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating TRE and HABIT for Overweight and Obesity and Prediabetes. Completed, enrolled 57 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Over half of American adults have overweight or obesity and are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Although caloric restriction has many health benefits, it is difficult to sustain overtime for most people. Time restricted eating (TRE), a novel type of intermittent fasting, facilitates adherence to the intervention and results in weight loss and improvement of metabolism. The investigators propose to examine the efficacy of self-monitoring and TRE (10-h/d) vs. self-monitoring and habitual prolonged eating duration (HABIT) (13 hours/d) on weight loss and body composition, metabolic function and circadian biology, in metabolically unhealthy adults aged 50 to 75 y old, with overweight or obesity. The investigators hypothesize that TRE, compared to habitual long duration of eating, will decrease cardiovascular risk burden.

Timeline
Interventions
The TRE intervention will be administered and monitored via the study app. It combines self-monitoring behavior, daily eating window reminders, positive reinforcement based on number of log entries or based on meeting eating widow target, and basic lifestyle text messages. It also allows research staff to monitor in real-time, via the backend cloud, adherence to self-monitoring, and to reducing the eating window.
