Changes in Breakfast and Dinner Times can Reduce
Body Fat A 10-week study by the 'Journal of Nutritional Sciences' investigated the impact of changing meal times and the effects it has on dietary intake, body composition and blood risk markers for diabetes and heart disease. Participants were split into two groups: those required to delay their breakfast by 90 minutes and have dinner 90 minutes earlier, Participants were required to provide blood samples and complete diet diaries before and during the study. Researchers found that those who changed their mealtimes lost on average more than twice as much body fat as those in the control group. If this can be repeated in larger studies, there is potential for time-restricted feeding to have broad health benefits. Dr. Jonathan Johnston, University of Surrey, via statement
