Can combining early time-restricted eating with daily caloric restriction supercharge your blood sugar control?

In this episode, I dive into a recent study by Zaman and colleagues that compared the effects of early time-restricted eating + calorie restriction & calorie restriction alone on continuous glucose levels in obese adults.

The findings may surprise you and reshape your approach to optimizing metabolic health.

Discover:
The critical importance of maintaining stable blood glucose levels
Surprising results on the impact of adding eTRE to DCR
Key factors to focus on for improving blood sugar control
Insights on the role of calorie restriction and weight loss
Practical tips for finding a sustainable approach that works for you

Paper: The effects of early time restricted eating plus daily caloric restriction compared to daily caloric restriction alone on continuous glucose levels





Quotable moments:

"Maintaining a stable blood glucose level is critical for your heart and vascular system. It prevents nerve damage, vision problems, and chronically elevated blood sugar can negatively impact brain function, crush your energy levels, and make you really moody." - Dr. Erik Korem

"When the researchers analyzed the data, they found there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of changes in average glucose levels, glucose variability, or insulin sensitivity over 12 weeks." - Dr. Erik Korem

"If you need to lose weight, start with a calorie deficit. And then if eating in a condensed timeframe helps you control your appetite, helps you put some guardrails up, or helps with not having low HRV at night and having an elevated heart rate, then do it." - Dr. Erik Korem

“The key is using stress and adapting to it and improving. That’s what high performance is to me, the ability to adapt rapidly so you can achieve your potential. There are five key pillars to creating the conditions for adaptability: sleep, exercise, mental resilience, nutrition, and community/relationships.” - Dr. Erik Korem  

“I maybe have a different concept on leadership. To me, leading is a verb. If you’re leading, you’re a leader. If you’re swimming you’re a swimmer, if you’re driving you’re a driver. If you’re leading you’re by definition a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to make a decision or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it’s your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce

"Attention is the currency of performance." - Dr. Peter Haberl

“That’s what I’ve discovered in the lives of brilliant, prolific, healthy creatives, is that they have networks of people they leverage in the course of their work. That they learn from, that they were challenged by, that they gave great insight and purview into their own life and work, in such a way that they were able to receive feedback that helped them get better at what they do.” - Todd Henry

"Restful and fulfilling sleep enables you to grow, adapt, and thrive. It creates the conditions for adaptation, so you can pursue audacious goals and thrive in uncertainty." - Dr. Erik Korem

"Most exercise programs fail, not because the reps and sets are poorly designed, but because the program doesn't adjust for how much stress your body can adapt to that day!. That's why Dr. Chris Morris' research and practical application of fluid periodization is the key for unlocking your performance potential." - Dr. Erik Korem
