NCT03147703

Brief Summary

The purpose of this investigation is to test the hypothesis that in humans, eating late may induce changes in saliva microbiota daily rhythms towards a more obesogenic and a less responsiveness to dietary treatments profile. These changes in microbiota may partly explain the weight loss difficulties that characterized late eaters in previous studies. Thus, the aim is to analyze the effect of the timing of food intake in humans' saliva microbiome daily rhythms in a randomized, crossover interventional study, in order to achieve.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Saliva microbiome daily rhythms

    Investigators will measure daily rhythms of saliva microbiome at early eating and late eating visits.

    Total of 4 weeks. Samples will be collected after week 1 and 2 and at week 4.

  • Feces microbiome daily rhythms

    Investigators will assess gut microbiome with one feces sample at early eating and late eating visits.

    Total of 4 weeks. Samples will be collected after week 1 and 2 and at week 4.

Study Arms (2)

Early Eating (EE)

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention is Food Timing, Early Eating is defined at 13:00 hours for lunch

Behavioral: Food Timing

Late Eating (LE)

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention is Food Timing, Late Eating is defined for 17:30 hours for lunch

Behavioral: Food Timing

Interventions

Food TimingBEHAVIORAL

the timing of the main meal of the day (lunch in Spain) is changed from early (14:00) to late (17:30) and viceversa in a randomized and crossover way
