New Delhi. Both the quality and quantity of food matter a lot. A person's health depends a lot on both of these things, but there is one more important thing, which is not only crucial for health, but is also necessary for digesting food properly. We are discussing the right time to eat, on which your metabolism depends greatly. When you eat is very important, because it keeps our body healthy. Eating at the wrong time can lead to many health problems. Let's know at what time to eat to keep your health right-

Morning breakfast

Breakfast is the most essential part of all the meals of the day. It provides nutrition and energy to the brain after a long interval, so that the body can be ready to work throughout the day. Have breakfast within 30 minutes of waking up in the morning. As per the time, have breakfast between 7 and 8 am and ensure you finish breakfast by 10 am at the latest. Also, always eat breakfast rich in protein and fruits.

Afternoon Lunch

Have lunch about 4 hours after breakfast. This keeps blood glucose balanced and manages unnecessary hunger or cravings. Have lunch between 12 pm and 2 pm and, at the latest, at 3 pm. Eat lunch made from a mixture of vegetables, lean protein, and complex carbs to maintain energy.

Dinner

Have dinner at least 2 hours before going to bed. As soon as it gets dark, the body's circadian cycle gets activated, the level of melatonin increases and the activity of the pancreas also decreases. This does not reduce insulin resistance, and if dinner is taken late, then along with increasing blood sugar, metabolism is also affected, and weight can also increase. Therefore, try to have dinner by 7 pm at the latest.
