Healthy Lifestyles for Bipolar Disorder (NCT06188754)
Time-restricted Eating vs. Mediterranean Diet as Adjunctive Interventions for Bipolar Disorder
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of two different healthy lifestyles on outcomes for those with bipolar disorder. The goals are to understand the acceptability of time-restricted eating and the mediterranean diet for those who are already receiving medication treatment for bipolar disorder, and to consider how these two food plans predict changes in manic symptoms, depressive symptoms, and Quality of Life. Participants will complete daily measures of eating, sleep and mood for two weeks, and then will be assigned to follow one of the two food plans for eight weeks. The investigators will measure symptoms and Quality of Life at baseline and during and after the food plan.
