Calories eaten in the morning count less and are healthier than calories eaten in the evening. Get the preface for Dr. Greger’s brand-new book, How Not to Diet, …
That was my big takeaway from all the intermittent fasting research I looked at, if possible, eat earlier in the day, so now I try to eat dinner early (I know that’s not possible for everyone) but most people should at least be able to avoid late night eating whenever possible. Breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, with or without an early pauper’s dinner would probably best.
I've done IF (TRE) Warrior style 20/4 for longer than it's had a name, over 30 years. It's worked very well for me. I do eat later in the day, per the theory that relates to the autonomic sympathetic and parasympathetic influences. Thank you for posting this information. I doubt I will start eating earlier, as I have too much hunting and gathering to do before heading back to the cave.
But what about shift workers? What about the people who are up ALL NIGHT LONG? Do they experience the same benefits? Would you be able to do more videos on the health in shift workers? It would be incredibly helpful and beneficial to many! 😀 Thanks for sharing and for all your hard work! 😀
Thank you for finally looking at intermittent fasting that's actually applicable to most people. Not alternative day fasting, or long term, but actual basic time restricted 8/16 fasting.
I'm so happy this is being covered. It convinced me to switch my 16:8 eating window from the evening to the morning. I can't wait to see if there are benefits! Thank you! 🙂
Any chance you can look into if coffee, tea, or other "calorie-free" foods and drinks have a metabolic response and if it removes or reduces the benefits of fasting?
Here is what Ellen White, co-founder of the Adventists wrote:
"Many indulge in the pernicious habit of eating just before sleeping hours. They may have taken three regular meals; yet because they feel a sense of faintness, as though hungry, will eat a lunch or fourth meal. By indulging this wrong practice, it has become a habit, and they feel as though they could not sleep without taking a lunch before retiring. In many cases, the cause of this faintness is because the digestive organs have been already too severely taxed through the day in disposing of unwholesome food forced upon the stomach too frequently, and in too great quantities. The digestive organs thus taxed become weary, and need a period of entire rest from labor to recover their exhausted energies. A second meal should never be eaten until the stomach has had time to rest from the labor of digesting the preceding meal. If a third meal be eaten at all, it should be light, and several hours before going to bed."
There is a swedish proffesor in biochemistry saying that too much antioxidants intake can be a problem since they not only protect The normal cell but also cancer cells. I consume turmeric, ginger shorts and drink Green tea. Also eat kale and blueberries. Could this actually be a problem?
I have always preferred fasting until mid-afternoon and eating most of my calories in the evening; my energy drops if I eat a big lunch and I get sleepy, whereas if I don't eat lunch I never experience the afternoon energy dip most people get. I guess the solution is to eat a very early dinner…
we're already time restricted feeding and blasted time and time again with inaccurate analyses of nutritional trials. nutrition is complicated and truth is nobody knows much at all about it apart from making either trite food pyramid perspective of else being contrarian just to pick up the rebels. truth is they all dont know jack about nutrition. breakfeast was invented and re-invented for vested interests. same goes for everything else that goes into your mouth. calorie counting and everything hopelessly wrong. our lifestyles, our bodies and our digestive responses differ. both the nutrition and excercise industries are in it just for the money. everything they say is either completely false or at least questionable and not backed up.
But what if you have no appetite in the morning? I tend to skip breakfast or have something small because I can wait easily until lunch with eating my first meal but in the evening I get massive cravings. I control them by following my appetite and eating my largest meal in the evening to prevent snacking. If I force myself to eat a lot in the morning I don‘t enjoy it at all and later on I get cravings for unhealthy foods nonetheless resulting in me feeling frustrated, stressed and unhappy. I cannot stop thinking about food all night and end up eating more than I would have if I did not force myself to eat a lot for breakfast.
I am always afraid that when I eat all the food in my time windwow in the morning rather than in the evening that I will have problems falling asleep because of hunger.
Do I get this right, time restricted eating is good, I can choose myself when I eat, but it is recommended to put that time you eat in the early hours rather than in the evening?
Can you point me towards any studies for a male in his 40's, never overweight, looking to gain strength and endurance? Flexitarian for 3 years. Intermittent fasting/time restricted diet for 1 year, skipping breakfast usually.
I'm hoping to gain 5kg of lean mass. It's essential to continue working as a Massage Therapist
When we say small dinner means in quantity and kcal, or just kcal? For example to eat 300 kcal I can just eat 50 gr of almonds or 1000 gr of watermelon.
Thank you so much for all the information you share with us. I just ordered your book from Peru, it might take a while to ship but hopefully I'll have it before Christmas. Thanks again, I really appreciate all your effort, you're changing lifes for the better! 🙂
I do OMAD and used to have my meal at 8 pm (I leave the office at 7 pm.) Then I started going to bed at 10 pm to wake up at 6 am to exercise and I didn't want to eat so close to my bedtime so I moved my meal to 3 pm on weekdays. I don't like that I have to eat in a rush but so far I'm loving it. It's easier in winter because when I get off work it's already dark so you feel like the day is over. I don't like to eat after dark
Longevity diet by Valter Longo – his book talks about intermittent fasting and has a lot of great findings. Body heals itself turns on stem cells and eliminates bad genes/cells etc. all that with skipping the dinner hell yeah! Dr Greger this topic is a smash hit!
Does creamer in my coffee count as breaking my fast? I don't actually eat until around 10:00 and I hit the floor running (figuratively) at 5:00, so there is only coffee and water until 10:00.

Thanks for the video. Sharing to all my friends cutting weight.
What a Ghoul.
I have a hard time falling asleep if I stop eating too early

Great. Thanks antipsychotic that makes me hungry late at night.
I eat 2 meals a day, last one usually being past 11pm, sometimes past midnight, and I'm doing great.
But what about shift workers? What about the people who are up ALL NIGHT LONG? Do they experience the same benefits? Would you be able to do more videos on the health in shift workers? It would be incredibly helpful and beneficial to many! 😀

10 to 12 hours feeding restrinction between each meal or between dinner and next day breakfast??

How Not To Diet just came in the mail. I’m more excited for this than the season finale of Game of Thrones. Thank you so much!

I love this video 🙂
What if I am never hungry in the morning or if I just get hungry in the evenings? Can I train myself to eat in the morning or even force myself?
I am always afraid that when I eat all the food in my time windwow in the morning rather than in the evening that I will have problems falling asleep because of hunger.

"the weight may be worth teh wait" . Very nice ending line.

Nice, I start a 5:30 am and stop at noon
Am wondering would it be okay to eat your final meal by 7pm, before a workout? what about post-workout meal if you train late at night?
I do OMAD and used to have my meal at 8 pm (I leave the office at 7 pm.) Then I started going to bed at 10 pm to wake up at 6 am to exercise and I didn't want to eat so close to my bedtime so I moved my meal to 3 pm on weekdays.

Correct! (altho I'm interested to know how that kind of eating regiment plays out after years of doing it…)
2:05 so for some people this diet wasn't as good as for others eh?Interesting, why after one year their mean weight didn't drop
sopr…
Nice!
This is the age old Ayurvedic style of eating, now scientifically proven.
That looks like a 6 am to 2pm eating window by the hr on the top bar at 0:33
Therevada Buddhist monks don't eat past 12 noon.
Ancient wisdom?
Does creamer in my coffee count as breaking my fast? I don't actually eat until around 10:00 and I hit the floor running (figuratively) at 5:00, so there is only coffee and water until 10:00.
