Time-restricted eating for people with early kidney signs
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether eating only during a certain window each day helps people with type 2 diabetes and small amounts of protein in their urine (a sign of early kidney stress) improve their health. You'll use a smartphone app to log your meals and follow a daily eating schedule.
