Late-night eating is terrible. This Experiment Explains

People trying to reduce weight have long been told to avoid eating at
night. Numerous studies have shown that eating late at night increases the
chance of becoming overweight or obese.

Even still, little research has looked at why nighttime eating would cause
an increase in weight. This was the question that prompted a recent study
conducted in the United States.

Researchers discovered that four hours of delayed dinner altered many
physiological and biochemical pathways contributing to weight gain.

This study adds to the growing research demonstrating the health benefits
of eating breakfast.
