It’s About Time

What time you eat is every bit as important as what you

eat when it comes to your general wellbeing, according to

recent research funded by the Medical Research Council

(MRC).^5 When you eat at an unusual time of day, researchers

found a protein called ‘period’ is triggered, which disrupts the

circadian rhythm of cells and, in turn, increases the risk of a

number of health concerns, including cardiovascular disease

and type 2 diabetes. For night workers, or jet lag su  erers, the

researchers suggest timing your meals as consistently

as possible.
