Key points
- Eating dinner between five and seven in the evening aligns with natural circadian rhythms and maximizes insulin sensitivity.
- Late night dining forces digestion to conflict with elevated melatonin levels, promoting fat storage and disrupting sleep.
- Front loading daily calories into earlier hours increases the thermic effect of food and boosts daytime metabolic rate.
- Finishing your final meal three hours before bedtime creates a natural overnight fast that aids weight management.
