Time-restricted Eating for Type 2 Diabetes

This study is looking at how time-restricted eating affects people with Type 2 Diabetes. You would eat all your daily food within a 10-hour window, ending by 8:00 PM, for one year. Researchers will measure your Hemoglobin A1c (a blood test that shows your average blood sugar over time) to see if this eating pattern helps manage your diabetes. You can join if you are 18 or older and have Type 2 Diabetes. You cannot join if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have an eating disorder, work night shifts, or take certain medications. This study is currently recruiting participants from the University of Kentucky Barnstable Brown Diabetes Center.

Study design
This is a single-arm study, meaning everyone receives the same intervention. About 102 people are planned to participate.
What's involved
You would follow a 10-hour time-restricted eating plan for one year. You will also text the times you start and stop eating each day.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your Hemoglobin A1c will be measured at least twice between the start of the study and one year later.
