Eating late at night endangers you from these diseases

The connection between late - night meals and weight gain is already known, but a new study suggests that it also increases the risk of developing diabetes and heart disease.

A group of American scientists have discovered that late - night eating increases blood sugar levels, thus becoming a cause for diabetes. Late-night meals also increase cholesterol levels and triglycerides, which may increase the risk of developing heart disease. And, following previous studies, the latest study has found that eating in the late hours of the night causes people to gain weight by lowering their body ability to burn fat.

These results have been released after a study conducted by the Perelman Medical School at the University of Pennsylvania, which confirms that late - night eating has a number of negative health effects. Scientists run an experiment on some young people.

At the end of the experiment, they concluded that eating after 11: 00 p.m. causes weight gain after the process of processing fat slows down where fats break down and are used for energy. In this case, the body metabolicized less lipid or fat. Heart experts recommend that you never eat within two hours of sleep.

Professor Kelly Allison, the lead author of the study, says: “although changing lifestyle is never easy, these results suggest that early eating may be a valid attempt to prevent these chronic diseases”. “We have sufficient knowledge of the impact of oversight on health and weight gain, but now we can better understand how the body processes food at different times of the day for a long-term”. / BW
