In this episode, I respond to a recent journal article in the New England Journal of Medicine called "Calorie Restriction with or without Time Restricted Eating in Weight Loss".  It was published on April 21, 2022.     This study addressed two groups eating the same amount of calories and macros of carbs, protein and fats.  The first did a Calories and macros were the same, and the only difference was the one group had an eight hour eating window from 8am to 4pm, and the other at standard times for breakfast, lunch and dinner along with snacks.  Food portions were closely monitored, a diet journal was kept and both groups received diet coaching.   I discuss results of the study, questions that I have about the study, the meaning of "statistical significance", and the viability of time restricted eating after this landmark study.    Is fasting just a mental hack to cut calories to lose weight?    I  don't think it is... In this episode, I explain why.    Fasting is a powerful weight loss tool remains viable even after this study.
