Timed eating patterns and heart health study
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether eating during a limited time window each day (like 10am–6pm) can help improve body composition, metabolism, and heart health in people who are overweight or inactive. Researchers will track your weight, fitness, and blood markers over time.
