Clinical Outcomes: How the Roczen Programme Improves Eating Habits, Mood, and Quality of Life
New peer-reviewed research published in Eating Behaviours via ScienceDirect highlights how the Roczen Programme, a clinically supported, digitally delivered weight management programme using time-restricted eating, led to significant improvements in eating behaviours, symptoms of depression, and quality of life over 24 weeks.
A Clinically Backed Shift in Weight Loss Thinking
Obesity and depression are deeply interconnected, yet few programmes effectively address both in tandem. The Roczen Programme, developed by Reset Health Ltd., offers a fresh, clinically grounded approach. This digitally delivered weight management programme combines time-restricted eating (TRE), behavioural coaching, and peer-led support. A new peer-reviewed study now confirms that this integrated method doesn’t just promote weight loss, it meaningfully improves mental health and quality of life.
The Study: Real Patients, Real Results
The evaluation included 102 adults living with overweight or obesity, most of whom were women in their early 50s. Over the course of 24 weeks, patients followed a tailored TRE protocol, typically following a 16:8 fasting–eating cycle, alongside guidance on whole foods and moderate carbohydrate intake. Crucially, the programme intentionally avoided calorie counting or rigid food tracking—focusing instead on behavioural change and psychological wellbeing.
The results were clear and clinically significant:
- Average weight loss of 11.0% of body weight at 24 weeks
- Significant improvements in binge eating behaviours, emotional eating, and uncontrolled eating
- Depression scores (PHQ-9) dropped by 2 points on average
- Quality of life (EQ-5D-5L) saw measurable improvement
starting with Type 2 diabetes and obesity.
