01:00 The study looked at how the timing of the bulk of calories consumption affected body composition changes/weight loss, appetite, satiety, blood sugar regulation and energy expenditure.
01:40 Participants who ate the majority of their energy in the morning, had a greater thermic effect of food compared to those who ate their majority at the evening meal.
03:10 Be consistent with your feeding schedule and personalize it to your preferences.
05:55 Food influences your peripheral circadian clock system, which may impact nutrient partitioning, fat loss, and overall metabolic health.
07:40 There was no statistical significance in metabolic markers between the group who had the bulk of their calories in the morning or evening.
08:00 There was greater satiety and appetite suppression in those who had the morning load.
09:45 The thermic effect of food was about 50 calories greater after the morning load vs the evening load.

| 0:00.0 | Let's talk more about meal timing as it relates to fat loss and metabolic health. |
| 0:03.5 | One of the most controlled studies to evaluate this was recently published |
| 0:07.6 | in the journal Cell Metabolism, and I think the findings are quite fascinating, |
| 0:11.6 | and it allows some personalization when it comes to when you consume the bulk of your calories, |
| 0:16.3 | either in the morning or in the evening. This study, my friends, was a randomized crossover study |
| 0:21.6 | to look at. The differences between consuming the bulk of your calories in the morning versus |
| 0:26.5 | consuming the bulk of your calories in the evening throughout the four-week period during |
| 0:31.8 | the same feeding window. Now, some of you might say, oh, well, this study's already flawed because |
| 0:36.2 | it's the same meal window and so on, but I think the findings are quite important and allow for |
| 0:41.6 | us to better personalize what type of feeding window we're going to choose, and when we should |
| 0:46.6 | consume the bulk of our calories specifically, as it relates to body fat changes, body composition |
| 0:52.5 | changes, weight loss, and metabolic health, because that's exactly what this study was designed |
| 0:57.6 | to look at. The primary parameters were outcomes were to look at the differences in body composition |
| 1:02.8 | changes that is fat loss, weight loss, over the course of four weeks, but secondary outcomes, |
| 1:08.1 | these investigators were looking to see, is if consuming more calories in the morning versus |
| 1:13.7 | in the evening time, if that would lead to different changes in appetite, satiety, blood sugar |
| 1:19.5 | regulation, and energy expenditure, because we've talked about, you know, what are the components |
| 1:24.6 | of your resting metabolic rate? Well, of course, you have how much muscle mass you have, how much |
| 1:29.6 | you weigh, you have the non-exercise associated physical activity. So you're out, you know, |
| 1:34.3 | you have a standing desk, you're fidgeting, you're moving. There's also the thermic effective |
| 1:38.4 | food, which was actually significantly different in this study, meaning the people who ate majority |
| 1:44.0 | of their energy in the morning had a greater thermic effect of food. It was about 160 some |
