Eating late at night is putting millions of people in danger of heart attacks and strokes, experts warn.
A late-night meal keeps the body on ‘high alert’ when it should be winding down, researchers found.
Heart experts have advised that adults should never eat within two hours of bedtime – and ideally, nothing after 7pm.
Researcher, Dr Ebru Özpelit, presenting her results at the European Society of Cardiology congress in Rome, said, “ If we eat late at night, the body essentially remains on high alert as during the day, rather than relaxing for sleep.”
Stress hormones are secreted, causing blood pressure not to decrease during sleep, which should normally happen.
How we eat may be as important as what we eat. She advised that people do not skip breakfast, eat lunch, and keep dinner to a small meal.
Eating breakfast and lunch is important but dinner must not be later than 7 o’clock in the evening. The findings add to a growing body of evidence which suggests keeping all meals to within a fixed time – and fasting at night – can have a wide range of health benefits.
