According to a new study, eating daily calories within a consistent window of 8-10 hours is a powerful strategy to prevent and manage chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. The findings of the study were published in the journal 'Endocrine Reviews'. Time-restricted eating is a type of intermittent fasting that limits your food intake to a certain number of hours each day. Intermittent fasting is one of the most popular diet trends, and people are using it to lose weight, improve their health and simplify their lifestyles. Aligning our daily habits of when we eat with the body's internal clock can optimise health and reduce the risk or disease burden of chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease and liver disease.
