Food choice often takes centre stage in conversations about digestion and energy, but timing is just as important.
The digestive system works best when it can rely on regular signals that nourishment is coming. Irregular eating, long gaps between meals or rushed food can place extra demand on digestion, even when food quality is good.
Over time, this can contribute to bloating, fatigue, poor concentration and feeling low in energy. Not because the body is failing, but because it’s constantly adapting.
Consistency doesn’t mean strict rules or perfect routines. It simply means giving the body enough regular nourishment so it doesn’t have to stay on high alert.
When digestion feels more supported, energy often follows.
Listening to patterns around when you eat can be just as informative as looking at what you eat.
