The Food Chain · When should I eat my evening meal? · 22 Jul 2026 podcast

It's like trying to repair a road without actually closing it.

It's not going to work very well.

You know, humans are actually very bad at knowing when they ate unless you write it down.

But I think I actually ate around 6.15 last night.

It was because I got my daughter home from dance class and then we ate when we got home.

So I have a marker there.

Really, it's not any...

specific time on a clock.

There's no universal magic hour from our point of view, at least.

And I think really what's driving everything is the circadian system, which is an anticipatory system, which helps your body prepare for what it needs to do.

And that is coordinated by the light that you're around, by your sleep-wake schedules, all those other kinds of things.

So depending on your environment and your schedules, everyone's going to have a little bit different time.

And I think the kind of easiest way to cheat that answer is to say it should end at least three or four hours before you go to bed.

So if you're going to bed at midnight, you should stop eating by eight or nine.

Usually it's recommended to be like a 10 or 11 hour eating window.

So if you're starting your breakfast at 6am, you should probably be ending by 4 or 5pm.

Six, I would say, is the latest you should be consuming something.

I think longer than a 12-hour window, we see kind of some negative effects there.

And I think 10 hours is perfectly reasonable and feasible for most people.

Then you get this kind of magic window.
