What time is it healthier to eat at night?
In most families, people gather in a relatively concentrated place at night, so most people eat a richer dinner. I feel that people are more lively, and everyone should be open to eating when they get together, but is it really good to eat more at dinner? Today, let's take a look at what we should pay attention to in dinner and how to eat it healthily.

Precautions for dinner:

1. Dinner time

The time for eating is around six o'clock, and it is best not to exceed eight o'clock. And it's best not to eat after eight o'clock, because the food at night needs time to be fully digested. If you eat too late, you haven't digested it before going to bed. Therefore, don't sleep for four hours after a meal, so that you can fully digest it, which also means that you can't eat too late.

2. Dinner consumption

As the saying goes, eat well at breakfast, eat well at lunch and eat less at dinner. So the consumption of dinner is less. If you eat too much, because people have less relative activity time at night, it is difficult to digest too much food, which is not conducive to sleep at night. You can make yourself a bowl of small rice, so don't eat too much after eating.

3. Vegetarian dinner

And it's better to make it relatively simple, eat less meat and more vegetables, and cook less high-calorie food. Try to give priority to foods with high vitamins, and eat less fat and foods with too much protein. If you eat big fish and big meat, it is easy to cause overnutrition and excessive fat accumulation at dinner, which is easy to cause obesity.

Eat less leftovers.

Many people have the habit of eating leftovers. If they can't finish breakfast and lunch, they will leave it for the evening. However, studies have shown that if the leftovers are left for 6 hours and then heated, the nitrite content in them will increase, and this nitrite will combine with amines in the stomach to form nitrosamines, which is a carcinogen. So it's best not to eat leftovers for dinner.
