Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia and time-restricted eating for weight loss
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (a talking treatment to improve sleep) to time-restricted eating (limiting when you eat each day) helps adults who are overweight and have chronic insomnia lose weight.
