Does it matter what time of day you consume food?

Answer 1

Benjamin Franklin said, "Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and supper like a pauper." Proving that even a wise man can talk out his butt, occasionally. I assume you are referring to the effects on wait gain. Some people say that heavy meals consumed before bedtime lead to greater weight gain. There is NO data to support that claim. Calories are calories. The body doesn't care when they are consumed. If you consume 3000 calories in one day, it doesn't matter if you consume them 1500, 1000, 500 or 500, 1000, 1500 or with six 500-calorie snacks. If you have been maintaining your weight on a 2500-calorie-per-day diet and then increased your consumption to 3000 calories per day w/o increasing your activity, you will start to gain about a pound per week -- a pound of adipose tissue has the energy equivalent of 3500 calories -- regardless of the time of day you eat your meals. Really it does matter I mean you health depends on it. You should eat 3 times a day breakfest,small snack,lunch,small snach,dinner, small snack.

Answer 2

Do not exercise before you eat. Your best time to exercise would be an hour or two after eating because if you exercise before you eat you are puttin in the calories you just burned off and if you wait until after you eat your body will burn off what you just ate instead of holding it in reserve.

Answer 3

no but if you exercise just before you go to sleep its best you warm down and slow your hart rate
