The Importance of Meal Timing
Meal timing is emphasized as a key factor in promoting optimal health. Contrary to conventional wisdom, it is suggested that breakfast should not be the first meal of the day, as our ancestors typically did not eat until later in the morning. The practice of delaying breakfast aligns better with our evolutionary history and can enhance metabolic health through time-restricted eating. For individuals struggling with fasting in the morning, a system allowing breakfast earlier in the day has proven effective, as evidenced by a patient's improved blood work after modifying his eating schedule.
