Eating healthy shouldn't be complicated!
But there's a right time to eat every food and a wrong time for some of them.
Below, are the foods that if eaten at wrong hours can harm your body!
I. Sugar
Sugar is essential for your body to create energy to survive. It should be consumed in the morning. This is so because it will provide you with all the energy you need during the day.
Worst time to eat sugar is at Night.
Because, consuming sugar at night will only increase your body fat since your physical activity is low at this time of the day.
Too much sugar in the diet also leads to elevated levels of stress hormone cortisol and stimulates the production of inflammatory prostaglandins.
This creates a vicious cycle and high levels of blood sugar stimulate the release of cortisol, which in turn causes more sugar cravings.
As a result, you develop a “sweet tooth” and gain weight at the same time. Consuming excessive amounts of sugar can affect your health negatively in the long term.
II. Apple
Eating apples in the morning is like eating gold, while eating an apple in the evening is more like eating poison.
Apples are a rich source of fiber which helps to smoothen the bowel function, to prevent constipation and also to eliminate carcinogens from the body.
However, when an apple is eaten in the evening, the very same fiber which helps with bowel movements actually puts a burden on the intestinal digestive functions.
In addition, organic acids inside apples can increase your stomach acid beyond your comfortable level. With all these ill side effects, it’s not advised to eat apples after dinner or during night time.
