How Time-Restricted Eating May Affect Metabolic Health and Body Clock Linked to Gut Bacteria in Healthy Men

Abstract

Time-restricted feeding (TRF) improved serum lipid and liver profiles in healthy males.

  • TRF enhanced gut microbial richness, particularly increasing the abundance of Prevotellaceae and Bacteroideaceae.
  • Circadian gene expression was improved in the TRF group, potentially linked to the activation of sirtuin-1.
  • TRF may offer a safe approach for preventing metabolic diseases associated with abnormal lipid levels.
  • The study involved two groups of male adults: a TRF group of 56 participants and a non-TRF group of 24 participants.
