Ever so often I would hear about certain protocols that must or must not be observed in order to lose or gain weight. However, a lot of them are just myths. As I have done before, let me bust some myths up.
Eating late at night makes you gain weight
I am certain many of you have heard that you should avoid eating late at night as it leads to weight gain? This idea comes from the hypothesis that eating disturbs your circadian rhythm, which is the 24-hour cycle that tells your body when to sleep, eat and wake. However, no evidence exists to support this claim. So if you eat after 6 pm, don’t worry, you will not gain weight because of that. The truth is, meal timing doesn’t really matter, as long as you don’t exceed your overall calorie intake.
