"The Impact of Time-Restricted Eating on Running Performance and Weight Loss"

New research conducted on lab mice suggests that restricting food intake to nighttime hours, when they are usually awake, can nearly double their running endurance. The study raises questions about whether this time-restricted eating approach could also benefit human runners. Further testing is needed to determine if this type of diet has similar effects on human endurance. The study highlights the importance of circadian rhythms in metabolism and exercise capacity, and adds to the ongoing debate on the performance value of intermittent fasting for runners.
