What is the best time to have dinner

You must not eat dinner too late, especially not before going to bed. This can easily lead to indigestion, fat accumulation, and obesity. You can eat dinner about three hours before going to bed, so that after dinner, the body can gradually move around, which also helps digestion. If you eat too late, it will have a greater impact on your health.

1. What time is the best time to have breakfast?

Within 2 hours after waking up, usually no later than 10:00 am.

Regarding the definition of breakfast, there is a statement that has been unanimously recognized by the academic community, which is that "the first meal of the day should be within 2 hours after waking up, generally no later than 10:00 am, and the energy it contains accounts for 20%~35% of the total daily energy requirement." Breakfast should include whole grains (not refined grains), fruit or juice, and skimmed or semi-skimmed dairy products.

2. What time is best to have dinner?

3 hours before going to bed, preferably between 18:00-19:00.

Nowadays, many people generally eat dinner late, which is not a good habit. If you eat too late, it will be time for bed soon. Going to bed before completely digesting food will not only result in poor sleep quality, but will also increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, easily induce obesity, and lead to the occurrence of a variety of chronic diseases. Dinner should be light. You can eat some lean meat and eggs with short muscle fibers and easy to digest, and eat less fatty meat. In addition, dinner should ensure food diversity and eat more vegetables and whole grains, which will help you intake more dietary fiber and increase gastrointestinal motility.

3. How long is the best nap?

About 10 to 30 minutes is best.

A proper nap can eliminate fatigue and improve sharpness and memory, but the nap time should not be too long, preferably not more than 30 minutes. Human sleep is divided into light sleep and deep sleep. After 30 minutes of falling asleep, you will gradually enter a deep sleep state. At this time, the inhibition process of the central nervous system of the brain deepens, and the metabolic process in the body gradually slows down. If you wake up at this time, you will feel uncomfortable and more sleepy, which will affect your work efficiency. So this is why some people take a long nap but feel even sleepier when they wake up.

4. What time is best to go to bed at night?

A normal adult should sleep about 7 to 9 hours a day, and the best time to fall asleep is around 10 p.m. to 11 p.m.

Regarding the issue of staying up late, I have talked about it more than once. Of course, there are also many people who have to stay up late to work overtime due to work and other issues. WeDoctor also reminds everyone that on the premise of ensuring normal sleep time, if the bedtime is delayed, try not to exceed 1 am. Staying up late for a long time can bring many harms, and can easily lead to decreased vision, fatigue, lack of energy, decreased appetite, acne, blackheads, dryness, lack of luster and other problems on the skin; many people are accustomed to eating midnight snacks when they stay up late, which can also easily lead to stomach problems.
