Scientists Find No Benefit to Time-Restricted Eating
Scientists Find No Benefit to Time-Restricted Eating
Supports ‘Endocrine Endocrine Disruptions’
Dr. Amy Blanton, Chairman of the Association of Cholesterol Educators, Publisher of Think Progress Report ADVANCED A LITTLE ON THIS:
“The evidence is quite clear that eating more time-restricted meals doesn’t lower blood sugar, insulin, or metabolism. The evidence is therefore not compelling for eating more time-restricted meals or even calorie restriction.”
(JAMA)
So, while that study may set a good precedent for a diet that encourages less weight loss and more energy, it could also be counterproductive for a diet that also encourages more exercise, which is good for body fat accumulation and low blood sugar.
Yet, Dr. Blanton’s study did not back up the claim that prayer (and healthy eating) are “more important than restorative meal plans?” [6]
The authors of the study were all physicians, no more than 4 years apart from each other, and they all had chronic health issues, which may have led to insufficient exercise. They were not psychologists, and had never been involved in a meta-analysis.
In other words, no more than seven out of 10 of the 4,200 adults in a controlled, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, placebo-controlled trial would recommend prayer as a successful means of reducing blood sugar. In other words, the more prayer you take, the lower your blood sugar will be.
More Than One Study Says ‘Time-Restricted’ Eating Can Boost Blood Sugar Levels
Is It Not Good?
It’s over 18 years since Dr. Marion Nestle published her groundbreaking research into how the brain and body are physically “adapted” to a very small amount of calories.
The results of her research, which were published in the Journal of Neuroscience, are overwhelming and important. In fact, she herself has spoken at every conference that she co-hosts with the National Institute on Aging and other leading experts on aging.
This is because the brain is only able to store 90% of the calories from food; about 40% of all calories are spent in the brain. That’s a pretty good ratio that supports most of meditation as a simple meal and as part of your daily routine.
But and this is the major question for many, including Dr. Nestle, the 1,200-plus physicians who have done her research, is it not time-restricted eating that will actually increase blood sugar levels?
“A study to date has not shown significant weight loss or a reduction in diabetes-related mortality rates for a non-energy-restricted diet,” Dr. Nestle told Physicians for a National Health Program. “The case supporting this claim is that daily caloric restriction, if not practiced consistently, can increase blood sugar, which can be a sign of behavioral problems if the diet is intermittent or does not improve blood sugar.”
There are very good reasons to practice intermittent fasting, including:
Providing proper nutrition
Providing a healthy diet
Supporting healthy physical activity and physical activity training
The lack of straining the body by eating food that enriches the brain can help restore brain function, but it is not required.
Dr. Nestle’s research has led to an increasing number of studies that conclude that people who experience poor insulin sensitivity or an abnormal glucose tolerance are all too afraid to attempt to lose weight.
Highlighting Studies That Contrary to the Evidence
So, we are now in a situation where what Dr. Nestle has done is proving that, while it can be beneficial, continuing to implement the recommended strategies is not good or smart practice.
For example, in her latest study, Dr. Nestle showed that people who ate less time-restricted diets can no longer feel tired, are less stressed, and feel good about themselves.
In fact, her research showed that people who ate less time-restricted diets are more likely to live longer.
This is important because it shows that people who eat more
