Study: NCT05730231

Intervention type: OTHER
Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Effects of calorie restriction and time-restricted eating on human health
Description: Calorie restriction plan will be prepared for each participant. After nutritional data collection at baseline, all participant will attend educational sessions about healthy diet and beneficial effects of time-restricted eating. To estimate total energy needs, individuals' RMR will be measured from indirect calorimeter and multiplied by the appropriate factor of physical activity (from 1.3 to 1.6), and then a reduction of 200-500 kcal will be made. Macronutrient composition of the diet will be approximately 45-55% of carbohydrate, 30-35% of fat, and 15-20% of protein. 30% of daily energy intake will be consumed by breakfast, 40% by lunch and 30% by dinner. During posting participants will be allowed to consume only water and herbal infusions without added sugars or sweeteners. Dietary intake of participants will be followed during the study using a 24-h recall. Dietary data will be analysed using the Open Platform for Clinical Nutrition accessible through the website http://opkp.si/.
