Can Time-Restricted Eating Help With Metabolic Syndrome?
Curating evidence-based lifestyle recommendations is key to achieving ideal cardiometabolic health in patients with obesity, as there is no “one-size-fits-all,” according to a presentation.
At World Congress on Insulin Resistance, Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease, Pam R. Taub, MD, discussed evidence-based dietary and lifestyle recommendations for cardiometabolic health; potential for intermittent fasting as an intervention in patients with cardiometabolic disease; and nutritional considerations for patients taking a GLP-1 receptor agonist.
“We have to curate what lifestyle interventions our patients are undertaking, and we need to curate those interventions based on the evidence base, because if we don’t, then they’re going to be prey to all of these social media and internet ads that target them,” Taub, who is founder and director of the Step Family Foundation Cardiac Rehabilitation and Wellness Center and professor of medicine at UC San Diego Health, said during the presentation. “We need to be better at understanding what lifestyle interventions are best for our patients. And it’s not one-size-fits-all.”
