Three times from your typical day. You see your eating window, your overnight fast and the time between dinner and bed, against published trials. No advice, nothing is stored.
The eating window is the time between your first and last meal. The overnight fast is the rest of the 24 hours, sleep included. The gap between dinner and bed is the time your digestion has before the night.
Each figure is set against published controlled trials on time-restricted eating and dinner timing.
It means fitting your meals into a window of a few hours, most often 8 to 10 hours in trials, without necessarily cutting calories.
In a 12 week trial, an 8 hour window did not lead to more weight loss than three meals spread across the day. Over a year, at equal calories, adding an 8 hour window to calorie restriction did no better than restriction alone.
In 20 healthy volunteers, the same dinner eaten at 10 pm rather than 6 pm led to higher blood sugar after the meal and less fat burned overnight. It is a short trial in young adults.
It is 24 hours minus your eating window: with a first meal at 8 am and a last one at 8:30 pm, the window lasts 12h 30m and the overnight fast 11h 30m.
