When you eat matters: metabolism is on a clock.
Your body’s internal circadian rhythm is designed for higher calorie intake earlier in the day, when insulin sensitivity and digestive efficiency are at their peak.

🔹 Morning–Midday: Your body is primed to use food for energy, not store it as fat. Blood sugar control and metabolic rate are strongest.
🔹 Evening: Metabolism slows, insulin sensitivity drops, and your body is more likely to store excess calories.
🔹 Night: Eating late can impair sleep quality, raise overnight glucose levels, and increase risk for weight gain and metabolic disease.

💡 Optimal approach:
• Front-load calories earlier in the day
• Make dinner your lightest meal
• Avoid heavy meals within 3–4 hours of bedtime

These simple timing shifts can improve blood sugar, support hormone balance, and aid long-term weight control—without changing what you eat.
