When healthy young men only eat between noon and 8pm for five days straight, it doesn't change how their blood fat levels respond after eating a high-fat meal
Scientific Claim
Five days of time-restricted feeding (12:00-20:00 eating window) does not significantly affect postprandial triglyceride levels in healthy young adult males aged 22±1.3 years with BMI 26.0±0.38 kg/m²
Original Statement
“Postprandial TG concentrations were not significantly different between the TRF and CON trials (trial × time, p = 0.531; trial, p = 0.850; time, p < 0.001; Fig. 2A). The AUC in the TG concentration were also not significantly different between the two trials (p = 0.956, Fig. 2B).”
