Hey friends, welcome back.

So when you study compare time restricted feeding versus a low carbohydrate diet versus the

combination of a low carb diet and time restricted feeding, and I thought it would be important

to sort of unpack the differences in the different arms of the study.

Remember, three different arms of the study and look at the outcomes here and talk about

the differences with early time restricted feeding versus late time restricted feeding

and talk about the addition of combining the TRF with a low carb diet in people who have

three existing metabolic dysfunction.

Part of the inclusion criteria in this study, which involved over 140 subjects, was the

diagnosis of metabolic syndrome.

So I think that's important.

And I think this study was really well done.

Some of the images here, this was published in cell reports, metabolism.

The title of the paper is, time restricted eating with or without a low carb diet reduces

visceral fat and improves the metabolic syndrome, a randomized trial that was conducted by researchers

and investigators in China.

And essentially what they found is the arm of the study that led to the most favorable

changes in both visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue will define and characterize the

differences between those fat subtypes.

And the best improvements in proxies linked with metabolic syndrome, such as a reduction

in blood pressure, reductions in triglycerides, improvements in HGL, and also changes in glucose

metabolism, including the HOMA IR score, fasting, insulin, and fasting glucose.
