Time-Restricted Eating

Does time-restricted eating improve longevity?

Yes. Aligning eating windows with circadian rhythms improves metabolic and cardiovascular health.

Explanation

Time-restricted eating (TRE) involves consuming all daily calories within a fixed window, often 8–10 hours. Studies show TRE improves glucose control, blood pressure, lipid profiles, and weight management even without calorie restriction.

Circadian biology suggests that eating earlier in the day, when insulin sensitivity is highest, enhances metabolic outcomes compared to late-night eating. TRE also reinforces sleep quality by synchronizing hormonal rhythms.

Practical Emphasis: Aim for a consistent eating window of 8–10 hours, ideally between morning and early evening, and avoid late-night meals.

Takeaway (Action Tip)

Adopt time-restricted eating to align nutrition with your body’s natural rhythms.
