Time restricted feeding has several health benefits. Here the authors perform a randomised cross-over study with 11 men with overweight/obesity to investigate how time restricted feeding affects skeletal muscle and serum, and report that it does not affect the core circadian machinery, but modifies periodicity in amino acid related metabolites and transporters.
