[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2321720, member: 506169"] I found that after I became 'fat adapted' on LCHF, I was no longer hungry at breakfast time and so started to eat my first meal of the day after midday. So I have been doing 'Time restricted Eating' naturally for over 12 month since then. Is it safe - Yes. Does it help reduce my HbA1C? - Possibly - since both my HbA1C and weight have continued to drop, but much more slowly. As Resurgam mentions, the liver produced glucose 'Dawn Phenomenon' can be concerning, but provided it doesn't get over 8.5 mmol, I was happy to stay fasted since I knew that it would fall if I ate something zero carb like cheese of an egg or two. Some people stop the BG rise by having a tea or coffee with cream rather than milk for their breakfast. I don't since I don't drink milky tea and don't like coffee. The way I look at it even if my liver is dumping some glucose into my blood in the mornings it is burning up my body fat store to produce it - so it is all good in the end. [/QUOTE]
