In the endless world of diets, there are many myths and legends; there are also hidden tricks that, no matter how obvious they may seem, not everyone knows.
We are referring, for example, to your meal times which, as it turns out, are just as important or even more so than what you consume when you are trying to lose weight.
You may wonder how this is possible, so today we tell you all about the importance of your eating schedules.
What needs to be understood is that the body's metabolism is regulated by a biological clock within each person.
Thus, when people eat outside their meal times, the clock becomes unbalanced and alters the metabolism. This not only increases the risk of obesity but also of chronic diseases like diabetes.

The findings from research at the Weizmann Institute of Sciences suggest that the best time to eat in the morning is four hours after sunrise, as this is when the body has the greatest ability to burn sugar and fat.

After that hour, it is suggested to eat every four hours, the first being a substantial meal with all food groups, followed by a small snack in the afternoon and ending with a light dinner of fruit, vegetables, or lean protein.

The research revealed that these biological clocks exist in both humans and animals, plants, and bacteria, and if we knew more about their exact timing, we could change our diets to benefit the body and prevent diseases.

The interesting thing is that by obeying these eating schedules, we are consuming food at the moments when our body best burns fats and sugars, so without even changing your diet, you start to lose weight simply by working with your body and not against it.
