After Seven Dinners...

After years of being told to eat before 7pm or starve for the rest of the night, newer studies suggest otherwise!

Katie Clark, assistant clinical professor of nutrition at the university of California, San Fransisco says calorie is a calorie, and it doesn't matter what time you eat it. If you're home after dark, tuck into some nourishment but keep these pointers in mind:

• The three-hour rule. The rule of thumb is to stop eating three hours before you hit the sack. A heavy meal or one that's too close to ur bed time keeps u awake as your body is forced to churn energy to breakdown and digest food.When food is not digested properly u end up with morning gas and bloated tummy.
