When Is The Best Time To Eat Dinner?

Studies have shown that eating early in the evening is better than eating late at night.

The highest percentage of the overweight people studied ate their dinners later at night than those of average weight. The reason for this appears to be the fact that their food does not get digested before they go to sleep.

Here is a tip - Your metabolism is at its slowest when you sleep. Undigested food that stays in your body overnight tends to build up fat and contributes to weight gain.

The best thing to do is eat five to six small meals throughout the day and a moderate dinner at a reasonable hour, generally three hours before you go to bed.

If you work at night or until a late hour and are in the habit of eating when you get home, try to change your eating and sleeping habits accordingly.

Remember to exercise three to five times per week and be sensible about when and how much you eat and you should be able to control your weight.
