The effects of time-restricted eating and weight loss on bone metabolism and health: a 6-month randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study explored the impact of time-restricted eating (TRE) versus standard dietary advice (SDA) on bone health.

Methods

Adults with ≥1 component of metabolic syndrome were randomized to TRE (ad libitum eating within 12 hours) or SDA (food pyramid brochure). Bone turnover markers and bone mineral content/density by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry were assessed at baseline and 6-month follow-up. Statistical analyses were performed in the total population and by weight loss response.

Results

In the total population (n = 42, 76% women, median age 47 years [IQR: 31-52]), there were no between-group differences (TRE vs. SDA) in any bone parameter. Among weight loss responders (≥0.6 kg weight loss), the bone resorption marker β-carboxyterminal telopeptide of t
