Time-restricted eating for liver disease or cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether combining time-restricted eating with healthy eating helps people with metabolic liver disease, cirrhosis, or early-stage liver cancer. If you are overweight and currently fast less than 12 hours at night, this diet approach might improve your health.
