Excited to hear this talk about Time-Restricted Diets by Dr. Grajower moderated by @theweightmd I'll try to share what I learned #AACE2022 #endotwitter
What are time restricted diets? We are using intermittent fasting incorrectly -- most are actually doing time restricted eating
Melatonin (released 3hrs before bed and present 1hr after awakening) inhibits insulin secretion which is why eating late at night has higher postprandial glucose compared to if same meal was eaten earlier
Time restricted feeding (TRF) resulted in improved insulin sensitivity, weight loss and improved sleep patterns -- so main point to TRF is to avoid times when melatonin is high
