Now, having just finished dinner at 9p.m. and hungry again, or, still, this hit me between the eyes, sort of. Like Holy Moly Batman!!! We know that heart disease is the leading cause of death world wide. Of the 18.6 million annual deaths in 2019, pre c’d 19, about 7.9 mil are attributable to diet. Many people eat late and many skip breakfast. Time of eating sets our circadian rhythms of various organs influencing things like blood pressure. Having the first meal of the day is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), with a 6% increase in risk per hour delay. For example, a person who eats for the first time at 9 a.m. is 6% more likely to develop CVD than someone who eats at 8 a.m.. I had breakfast around 4p.m. today. I don’t want to do the math. Here is the kicker: Eating late, after 9 p.m. is associated with a 28% increase in the risk of CVD such as stroke compared with eating before 8 p.m., particularly in women. Finally, a longer duration of night time fasting-the time between the last meal of the day and the first meal of the next day- is associated with a reduced risk of CVD, supporting the idea of eating one’s first and last meals earlier in the day. This could be intermittent fasting, if done correctly. I have recommendations for that and suggest not using the info rampant on the internet. Correctly done you will probably end the need for snacking, which is another pitfall of our dietary habits.
