When you eat may be just as important as what you’re eating.
Every 1 percent increase in night-time calories consumed after 8 p.m. boosted the likelihood of higher blood pressure, less long-term control of blood sugar, and higher body mass index—which all contribute to heart risks, according to lead researcher, postdoctoral research fellow at Columbia University’s Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons.
“What we found is that when we eat may be just as important as what we eat and how much we eat,” Makarem tolddone last year by Makarem and her colleagues, looking specifically at evening eating in the Hispanic/Latino population. In that research, the greater the percentage of calories consumed after 6 p.m., the higher the fasting glucose and insulin, as well as increased insulin resistance—which are all precursors to diabetes and high blood pressure.
“These rhythms are the innate, 24-hour cycle that ensure our bodies are synchronized with the environment, and they’re controlled by a master clock in the brain that is entrained by light,” she said“However, our organs—including those involved in digestion and metabolism—also have clocks that regulate their function, which are entrained by food signals.”Our bodies aren’t designed to consume a greater proportion of our calories in the evening, she added.
