We’ve heard that eating at night leads to weight gain… even if you’re not eating any more than you normally do. So why is that? According to the Autonomous University of Chile, it’s because our bodies have adapted to burn more energy during the day. So as the sun sets, our metabolism naturally slows down, helping us prepare for sleep. That means we’re not processing food as efficiently.
