| I’ve been eating on the schedule that would fit IF for about seven years now. Originally, I just decided to not eat anything after dinner anymore because that’s when I ate all the crappiest empty calories during the day. And then I tend not to be hungry first thing in the morning.
This study does not alarm me particularly. observational studies of nutritional matters are always iffy at best at this one seems particularly badly done, or at least badly interpreted. if worse comes to worse, I can always go back to eating a half gallon of ice cream before I go to bed at night…. |

I did it for a few months, but more strict than the eating window thing they’re talking about. I started on one meal a day (1/24) and when that stopped working went to 1/36 then 1/48. When that stopped working I gave up on it. From following the FB group I learned that it works well for folks who have a great deal of weight to lose - 200# or more. I would not be surprised to learn that those folks had more heart issues to begin with and it skewed the study.

Same here on not eating after dinner. I can't live without breakfast, however. I'd say I've been eating in a 10 or 11 hour time window and it seems to agree with me. JoAnn E Manson of Harvard is well regarded and she was one of the study authors, as is Linda Van Horn of Northwestern, but I, too was bothered by some aspects of what was being reported. That prompted me to look for the "day after" analysis like the one I found at Stat. Eat food, in moderation. Including ice cream.
