Abstract
This study examined the effects of time-restricted feeding (TRF; 8-h feeding window/16-h fasting window daily) on sleep. Obese adults (n = 23) followed 8-h TRF for 12 weeks. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) total score was below 5 at week 1 (4.7 ± 0.5) and week 12 (4.8 ± 0.7), indicating good sleep quality throughout the trial. Subjective measures of wake time, bedtime, and sleep duration remained unchanged. Findings from this secondary analysis indicate that TRF does not alter sleep quality or duration in subjects with obesity. Novelty This study is the first to show that TRF (8-h feeding window/16-h fasting window daily) does not alter sleep quality or duration in subjects with obesity.
