Low-Calorie Diet vs. Time-Restricted Eating in the Pursuit of Diabetes Remission
This narrative review compares low-calorie diet (LCD) and time-restricted eating (TRE) as dietary strategies for type 2 diabetes remission. It synthesizes evidence from clinical trials and emerging studies on physiological mechanisms, clinical outcomes, and real-world implementation, particularly in circadian-disrupted and underserved populations.
The manuscript discusses intra-organ fat reduction, insulin sensitivity, circadian alignment, and adherence barriers, concluding that both LCD and TRE offer promise for personalized, equitable diabetes care.

Time-Restricted Eating for Night Shift Workers with Type 2 Diabetes
Night shift workers experience chronic circadian disruption, contributing to disproportionately high rates of obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes. Traditional dietary interventions often fail to account for the unique circadian challenges experienced by this group.
Circadian-aligned time-restricted eating (TRE) has emerged as a metabolic strategy that may improve glycemic control by restoring alignment between feeding-fasting cycles and endogenous biological rhythms. This review synthesizes current evidence on TRE as a targeted intervention for night shift workers with, or at high risk of, type 2 diabetes.
