A recent study has shown that the timing of food intake influences microbiota in mice model. This study reported that obesity dampens the cyclical changes in the gut microbiome of mice while time-restricted feeding (TRF), in which feeding is consolidated to the nocturnal phase, partially restores these cyclical fluctuations. Furthermore, TRF which protects against obesity and metabolic diseases affects bacteria and has shown to influence host metabolism. Then, feeding pattern and time of food intake, in addition to diet, are important parameters when assessing the microbiome's contribution to mice metabolism. However, to our knowledge no human studies are available showing the effect of timing of food intake in microbiota.
