My research focuses on the effects of nutritional and meal-timing interventions on cardiometabolic health, particularly in populations at increased metabolic risk such as individuals with overweight/obesity and night shift workers. My work primarily investigates changes in cardiometabolic biomarkers, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure parameters, circadian rhythms and endothelial function.
 

My current work includes studies on:

  1. Calorie restriction with or without time-restricted eating (TRE) in individuals with overweight/obesity and elevated fasting glucose
  2. Whey protein preloads before evening meals in female night shift workers with overweight/obesity
  3. The impact of meal consumption versus fasting during night shift on cardiovascular and endothelial markers

 

My research aims to better understand how meal timing and dietary interventions can improve metabolic and cardiovascular outcomes.
