Time-Restricted Eating May Reduce CVD Risk After Breast Cancer
-
Time-restricted eating reduced cardiovascular risk among older breast cancer survivors, a single-group feasibility study suggests. The results show a 15% relative decline in cardiovascular risk, measured using the Framingham Risk Score, among at-risk breast cancer survivors (BCS) after only 8 weeks of following a time-restricted eating regimen, reported Amy A. Kirkham, PhD, assistant professor of kinesiology and physical education, University of Toronto, and colleagues.

@rukmini-nair This approach is easy for patients to follow and is much simpler than many of the other dietary patterns, noted Kirkham. It simply consists of having a start time or end time to your eating, so it is easy to prescribe. You can see how that is much easier for a doctor to explain to a patient than trying to explain how to meet the physical activity guidelines each week.
