A Harvard-affiliated study found that delaying breakfast is associated with a higher risk of death and health issues like fatigue, depression, and poor sleep, emphasizing the importance of eating breakfast early and maintaining consistent mealtimes for better health and longevity.
A study suggests that eating breakfast and dinner earlier can reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke, with breakfast at 8am linked to a lower risk compared to 9am, and eating before 8pm associated with a reduced risk of cerebrovascular disease, especially in women. Longer periods of nighttime fasting also correlate with a decreased risk of stroke. The research, which used data from over 103,000 French individuals, highlights the potential role of meal timing in cardiovascular disease prevention and supports the emerging field of chrononutrition. The findings were published in Nature Communications.
A study published in Nature Communications suggests that eating breakfast earlier and having dinner before 8pm can significantly reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, including heart attacks and strokes. The research, which analyzed data from over 103,000 French individuals, found that each hour delay in the first meal of the day increases the risk of cardiovascular disease by 6%, and eating after 9pm raises the risk of cerebrovascular disease by 28%, especially in women. The study highlights the importance of meal timing and suggests that a longer duration of night-time fasting could be beneficial for heart health.
