At first, not eating after noon was just a belief of monks, not to lose weight. Now people learn to lose weight by not eating after noon: only eat two meals a day and stop eating any solid food (except fruit and water) after 2 ~ 3 pm every day. So is it really effective to lose weight without eating in the afternoon?

People are obese because they consume more calories than they do, so whenever they eat, they will get fat if they eat too much. For people who overeat during the day, eating less at dinner or eating in a list, "not eating after noon", will reduce a certain amount of calorie intake, thus reducing the speed of fat accumulation and losing weight to some extent.

However, it should be pointed out that if you are in poor health, you need to eat scientifically to ensure adequate and balanced nutrition. A simple diet for a short time may make you feel better, but after a long time, the adverse consequences caused by insufficient nutrition and imbalance will appear and bring more harm to your body.

Experts pointed out that it is not suitable for modern people not to eat after noon. The ancients ate two meals. Because they got up early, they mostly worked during the day. They had an early meal and an afternoon meal, and there was no nightlife. They went to bed early after dark, so they got used to two meals. However, modern people get up relatively late. A lot of work during the day requires breakfast and lunch to ensure energy. After work, they still have five or six hours to sleep, play or work overtime. If they don't eat after noon, they are actually deducting their "wages", which will damage their health over time. Especially for women, the body needs to store a certain amount of fat, which is determined by the life code. Excessive bone feeling can lead to serious problems such as anemia, menopause and infertility.

The diet of not eating after noon seems to be controversial, but I personally think that as long as the daily food intake can meet the needs of physical activity, eating two or three meals has little effect on the body. Just like some rural farmers in Guanzhong, they still have the habit of eating two meals a day, but every village has a healthy and long-lived centenarian. Whether a diet that doesn't eat after noon is effective and healthy depends on the amount of things to be reduced rather than the number of times.
