Conclusion: "Time-restricted eating, in the absence of other interventions, is not more effective in weight loss than eating throughout the day."
It is a pet peeve when a failure to reject the null hypothesis is reported (in confident language) as a confirmation of the null hypothesis. However, I do appreciate how clear the results section is in breaking down exactly what they did measure: both groups lost weight, and the time-restricted group lost more but not significantly more in the overall study.
