The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of a time-restricted eating (TRE) regimen on hallmarks of aging, in comparison with traditional caloric restriction and an unrestricted diet in adults with overweight/obesity.
Investigators aim to assess:
Participants will be randomly allocated to:
Intervention will be maintained for 6 months, and there will be an additional 6-months period of follow-up to assess the maintenance of the intervention without supervision.
Changes from baseline in phenotypic and molecular hallmarks of aging, including: chronobiology, quality of life, cognition, metabolism and epigenetics among groups over the follow-up will be analyzed.
Aging has been defined as the time-dependent functional decline that affects most living organisms, and this biological process occurs with great variability from person to person. Healthy aging refers to developing and maintaining functional abilities to enable the well-being of the elderly. Therefore, promoting healthy aging strategies in the population would result in people living in a healthy state for most of their lifespan. This would have an important socio-economic impact, considering that aging is a risk factor for multiple diseases and that the proportion of older persons continues to increase. Interestingly, healthy lifestyle habits such as proper nutrition and physical exercise could attenuate the progression of aging-related diseases and ameliorate age-related decline. Among the lifestyle interventions that could improve healthspan, time restricted eating (TRE) is a promising candidate. TRE is a type of intermittent fasting that involves time-limited consumption of food during a specific time window. This dietary intervention has a demonstrated positive impact on some aspects of health both in pre-clinical models and clinical trials. The beneficial effects of TRE can occur at different physiological levels that are related to healthy aging, such as metabolism and body composition, circadian rhythms and sleep, and cognitive function. However, the mechanisms through which TRE may influence these aspects are not fully understood. Therefore, and considering current evidence pointing to a beneficial effect of TRE on health, the hypothesis is that an intervention with TRE in overweight/obese individuals has a positive impact on their aging determinants (metabolism and body composition, circadian rhythms and sleep, quality of life, and cognitive function) which is associated with favorable changes in cellular traits of aging (autophagy, immunosenescence, and biological age). This is a controlled, randomized, parallel group intervention trial to assess the effect of TRE, in comparison with traditional caloric restriction and unrestricted diet on phenotypic and molecular aging parameters.

Intervention groups will be randomly assessed letters A, B or C. Data analists will used masked groups in the analysis.
|
| Energy-reduced Mediterranean diet | Other | Participants will follow a Mediterranean diet with a 25% caloric restriction. Participants will be provided with dietary programs, menus, shopping lists and other educational material to encourage adherence to the intervention. |
|
|
| Mediterranean diet with time-restricted eating | Other | Participants will follow the same dietary guidelines given to MedD group, but they must to adjust their daily meals to a self-selected 10-hour eating window. This 10h eating window of their choice should be comprised between 6.00 to 20.00h. Participants will be allowed to consume water and non-caloric drinks during the fasting period (outside the 10h eating window). Participants will be advised to follow the 10h TRE during weekdays and weekends. |

The scores obtained in Pittsburg's questionnaires in each visit will be compared with the baseline scores with mixes linear models. The score ranges from 0 to 20. Higher scores in the Pittsburg's questionnaire means worse sleeping quality. |
| 12 months |
| Changes form baseline in cognitive function scores measured by the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT). | The scores obtained in RAVLT in each visit will be compared with the baseline scores with mixes linear models. The raw scores are corrected by age group and shown as percentil score. Higher percentile means better performance in the test. | 12 months |
| Changes form baseline in cognitive function scores measured by STROOP color and Word test. | The T scores obtained in the STROOP test in each visit will be compared with the baseline scores with mixes linear models. Scores range from 20 to 80. Higher scores means better cognitive performance. | 12 months |
