Brief Summary: This study aims to investigate how time-restricted eating TRE more specifically TRE at different times early vs late in the day influences brain activity behavior decision-making food intake physical activity the gut microbiome and metabolic processes The study intervention procedure is a replication of that described in Peters et al 2021
Detailed Description: This study aims to investigate the effects of different time-restricted eating TRE interventions on decision-making brain activity and related processes in an all female cohort over 8 weeks The study will have a within-subjects randomised crossover design involving two TRE interventions with a comparable feeding and fasting window of 816h respectively- early TRE eating window 0800-1600 and late TRE eating window 1300-2100 After completing a screening visit participants will complete a two-week observational phase in which they record their habitual food intake as well as sleep and physical activity assessment After this observational phase participants will be randomly assigned to one of two study arms early TRElate TRE or late TREearly TRE Here they will complete both TRE interventions for two weeks each separated by a washout phase of two weeks During these phases they will record their food intake and physical activity and sleep will be assessed The participants will be invited for 4 laboratory study visits during this time at the beginning and end of each TRE intervention
