Prioritize eating an EARLY DINNER. I have been a huge advocate of this practice for years and have seen this simple switch make a MASSIVE difference in the health of so many of my patients & students. ⁣
⁣
Eating late in the evening before bed is a recipe for fat gain, poor long-term health, and sleep disruption. ⁣
⁣
Our bodies have to divert so much energy towards digesting our food. ⁣
⁣
When we are sleeping, we want our body's energy to go towards rejuvenation, repair, and detoxification, NOT on digesting your late-night meal. ⁣
⁣
Having ample time between your last meal and bedtime is also very important for autophagy (cellular clean-up) and inducing a growth and repair mode (anabolism) during our deep sleep cycles. ⁣

If you have made the switch to earlier dinners, tell me about it below! 👇🏼
