Aliquot #7: How late-night eating dysregulates metabolism
Eating too much or too little generally has obvious effects on our health. But a growing body of evidence suggests that when we eat matters, too. Late-night eating can have negative effects on our health. But time-restricted eating limits the daytime window during which a person eats to take advantage of the time when metabolism is optimized, improving health and even promoting weight loss. This episode of the Aliquot features Dr. Satchin Panda, an expert in circadian rhythm research, and Dr. Ruth Patterson, an expert in cancer epidemiology.
