Interesting Epidemiological Results for Time Restricted Feeding

In this study, researchers investigated the potential long-term health impact of following an 8-hour time-restricted eating plan. They reviewed information about dietary patterns for participants in the annual 2003-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) in comparison to data about people who died in the U.S., from 2003 through December 2019, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Death Index database. The analysis found: (a) people who followed a pattern of eating all of their food across less than 8 hours per day had a 91% higher risk of death due to cardiovascular disease; (b) the increased risk of cardiovascular death was also seen in people living with heart disease or cancer; (c) among people with existing cardiovascular disease, an eating duration of no less than 8 but less than 10 hours per day was also associated with a 66% higher risk of death from heart disease or stroke; (d) time-restricted eating did not reduce the overall risk of death from any cause; (e) An eating duration of more than 16 hours per day was associated with a lower risk of cancer mortality among people with cancer.
