Eating Late at Night and its Harmful Effect

Eating late meals is a normal albeit unhealthy routine or lifestyle for many today. Eating late at night has no harmful effect on your health only when you eat very nutritious vegetables, whole grains and foods during that late hour.

Late night meals are often linked to obesity, and if at all you must eat late at night, take in foods that have low calories to avoid the repercussion of eating late at night.

Effects of Late Night Meals:

  1. Disrupted Sleep: avoid taking large and heavy meals during late hours as it affects your sleep. Coffee, energy food diets, caffeinated and beverage drinks taken late at night can make it difficult for you to sleep at night.
  1. Gaining Weight: dietitians have stated clearly that when you inculcate the habit of eating a particular type of calorie dense food, it adds to residual weight gain. Do not eat at least two hours before the time you’ll go to bed, to avoid obesity and increasing your body weight.
  1. Increased Excretion and Urination: when you eat late at night, the number of times you would be visiting the bathroom during the night could increase significantly. Taking late night meals will lead to food being digested during your sleeping hours, leading you to wake up at night to pass out the waste.

  11. I think that everything posted made a great deal of sense.
    However, think about this, what if you were to create a awesome headline?
    I ain’t saying your information is not solid, but suppose you added a title
    to possibly grab a person’s attention? I mean Eating Late at
    Night and its Harmful Effect – Healthfacts is kinda
    boring. You could look at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they create news titles to
    grab viewers to open the links. You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab readers excited about what
    you’ve got to say. In my opinion, it might bring your website a
    little livelier.
