Chrononutrition
Chrononutrition is the science of meal timing — eating larger meals earlier and avoiding late-night snacking can improve weight control and metabolic health.
Patient-Friendly Explanation
Chrononutrition is the science of how meal timing affects your body. Eating larger meals earlier in the day and avoiding late-night snacking can improve weight control, blood sugar levels, and overall metabolic health.
Clinical Definition
Chrononutrition examines the interaction between feeding-fasting cycles and circadian rhythms regulated by the suprachiasmatic nucleus. Evidence shows that consuming a higher proportion of daily calories earlier improves insulin sensitivity, reduces postprandial glucose excursions, and supports greater weight loss compared to evening-heavy eating patterns.
