About this trial

This is a clinical trial to assess how time-restricted eating (TRE) may improve kidney health and filtration patients with type 2 diabetes and increased protein content in their urine. All participants will be participating in TRE in which they follow a consistent 8-10 hour eating window everyday.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age: 18-75 years old

Participants with T2DM with A1c between 6.5 and 9.0 % and on stable doses of medications who are weight-bearing and self-ambulatory.

uACR ( urine albumin creatinine ratio) results ≥ 30 - 300 mg.

Willingness to use smartphone for research procedures (Apple iOS or Android OS)

Disqualifiers

Participants with Type1DM and T2DM who are taking insulin, sulfonylureas, or have an HbA1c > 9 %.

Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (EGFR) < 45

Systolic BP greater than 160 mmHg and/or Diastolic BP greater than 110 mmHg (with or without treatment/medication)

LDL cholesterol greater than 200 mg/dL
