The article is paywalled. Even if (and I haven't read the article) the explanatory power of mean outcomes is equal between diet content and diet timing, it's absurd to think that the worst-case timing (as long as one isn't starving) is as bad as the worst-case content (again, as long as one isn't starving or eating objective poisons).

Having an average daily American intake all in one go right before bed or spread out equally among 5 minute intervals can't be as bad as a diet mostly consisting mostly of deep fat fried chocolate bars at average American meal timings.

Two years ago I stopped eating sugar and flour. I also started eating on a schedule. Breakfast when I wake up between 6am and 730am, lunch around 1pm, dinner around 7pm. No I’m between snacks except some coffee, water, and chewing gum.

The results are that I’m in the best shape and health of my life.

> When should you eat is just as important as what you eat And they don't tell us when to eat either. It's just another article about "there is a correlation in mice" and continue with a bunch of truisms for good measure.

Love these one-line synopses. Much appreciation for saving me the time. Thank you.
