IMPORTANCE The efficacy and safety of time-restricted eating have not been explored in large randomized clinical trials.OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of 16:8-hour time-restricted eating on weight loss and metabolic risk markers.INTERVENTIONS Participants were randomized such that the consistent meal timing (CMT) group was instructed to eat 3 structured meals per day, and the time-restricted eating (TRE) group was instructed to eatad libitumfrom 12:00pmuntil 8:00pmand completely abstain from caloric intake from 8:00pmuntil 12:00pmthe following day.DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This 12-week randomized clinical trial including men and women aged 18 to 64 years with a body mass index (BMI, calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) of 27 to 43 was conducted on a custom mobile study application. Participants received a Bluetooth scale. Participants lived anywhere in the United States, with a subset of 50 participants living near San Francisco, California, who underwent in-person testing.MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcome was weight loss. Secondary outcomes from the in-person cohort included changes in weight, fat mass, lean mass, fasting insulin, fasting glucose, hemoglobin A(1c)levels, estimated energy intake, total energy expenditure, and resting energy expenditure.RESULTS Overall, 116 participants (mean [SD] age, 46.5 [10.5] years; 70 [60.3%] men) were included in the study. There was a significant decrease in weight in the TRE (-0.94 kg; 95% CI, -1.68 to -0.20;P = .01), but no significant change in the CMT group (-0.68 kg; 95% CI, -1.41 to 0.05,P = .07) or between groups (-0.26 kg; 95% CI, -1.30 to 0.78;P = .63). In the in-person cohort (n = 25 TRE, n = 25 CMT), there was a significant within-group decrease in weight in the TRE group (-1.70 kg; 95% CI, -2.56 to -0.83;P < .001). There was also a significant difference in appendicular lean mass index between groups (-0.16 kg/m(2); 95% CI, -0.27 to -0.05;P = .005). There were no significant changes in any of the other secondary outcomes within or between groups. There were no differences in estimated energy intake between groups.CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Time-restricted eating, in the absence of other interventions, is not more effective in weight loss than eating throughout the day.
