Dietary Approaches for Improving Cardiometabolic Health
This pilot study aims to recruit 30 adults with abdominal obesity, without major chronic
disease, and test whether clinical dietary advice that is solely focused on the timing of
eating (time restricted eating), has an effect on cardiometabolic health compared to standard
dietary advice for cardiometabolic health, which is focused on content. The goal of this
pilot study is to develop and hone dietary counseling approaches for time restricted eating
for RD's in a clinical practice paradigm, and collect data on testing this intervention
compared to standard dietary counseling approaches for cardiometabolic health.
