Eating late at night is really very dangerous because it can lead to increased sugar level,constipation,and inability of the body system to digest the food well.since when we eat late at night we tend to sleep immediately we do not allow the stomach to use the required time for digestion which is 3-4  hoursrather we tend to hasten the digestion and in doing so we increase the rate of metabolic activities in the body system.

We increase the sugar content or level in that as a result of not relaxing before going to bed or not taking a walk at least we let the food digest and store up sugar or glucose that normally should be used for working and the build up of the various sugar can also lead to obesity a state of extreme fat.

   This  is fast becoming prevalent amongst youths. In the days of our fathers & mothers ,this wasn't common.

    The era of jet age has worsened everything including our eating habits. As to what we eat, the time we eat & how we eat.

   Eating late has dangerous effects on the body.
* it causes us to have full bladder thereby increasing the rate we get up to urinate at night.

* leads to overweight as the food has no time to digest so it's stored up for long.

* slow digestion of food.
*it causes headaches because the food does not digest properly.

   Late night eating has never & will never be beneficial to the body.
If you must eat anything late at night it can only be fruits or take some water.

Dangers that occurs while eating late at night are much because the best precaution is to eat before night so that the food will be digest before he or she goes to bed. Eating late at night can cause

i.) Stomach pain
ii.) Heavy body
iii.) Undigested food
iv.) Running stomach etc.

All this are causes of late night food and it causes damages to the body. Food eating at night can cause sleepless night and toilet every minute visiting because the food will never digest before going to bed. This made me to remind a story about a woman that ate brand and bread as night food around 9:30pm in the night and was disturbed throughout the night because of undigested food. The husband taught it was something not serious until the wan landed in hospital after been heavy and big stomach. Any one that is eating beans at night must eat before night comes because some food takes like 4hours or more before digestion.

Eating late at night is totally un hygienic.




The body system works like a time frame.





When the body system is supposed to rest at night and you eventually have a meal.




It works through out the night to digest the meal.



Which could result to poor night rest.





Meals taken in at night fight find it very hard to digest easily.

There are alot of health hazards attached to eating late night food.






Like increase in blood sugar level and it also results in increase in body weight.






Since the body doesn't carry out other activities that uses up energy at night.






The body stores the food taken at night as fat resulting in weight gain.

Eating late at night is not good, it can give you pot belly, it causes increase in body weight, but we can't blame most people who do eat late, so people comes back from work late at night, due to traffic in lagos. But for people who do eat late when they've been at home all day should stop it because it is very bad.

The dangers of eating late at night are



1. It causes pot belly



2. Increase in weight



3. Increase in sugar level



It not really good to eat late at night because of those things listed above. But most of us don't do this by purpose, most people come back home late from work due to traffic. And when one is hungry, you just gotta eat food to gain energy.

Eating late at night is one of the major causes of weight gain.
Aside that when you eat late at night when your body is supposed to be at rest, because the body works like a clock, it affects your night rest as well.

That is why most people find it very hard to sleep well when they eat late at night.

@abbey: You are actually right bro.
There's a statement our family doctor used to tell us at home.
Which is you eat your breakfast like a king.

Eat your lunch like a prince.
But eat your dinner like a pupper.

This goes a long in helping you stay healthy.

Thanks so much Kingsaro4 for the exposition.



I'm personally guilty of late night eating especially more often these days.



I come back home late so I eat late



As for me one of the major sign I see when I wake up in the morning having eaten heavy the past night is that, my stomach is still big, but I am very hungry.



Thanks again for the lesson.. I and I hope others who are also guilty will try and change for good.

Yeah I agree that there are dangers to eating late at night just like you have listed and some more issues that are reported to be the main part of health issues.



This thing of late night eating habits are so common in Africa and these are from the olden days so it is as if it is so much a hard thing to do away with or to permanently stop.



This happens mostly from lateness back home from work or office. It seems like that is the only available time to prepare or to make food at home.



So many people get back home late after the work of the day so therefore they still prefer to eat late than stay without food through the night not minding what could happen.



These therefore has become a regular practice and a habit that is so hard to stop. Some even stay late intentionally because the eating early of a thing is not part of them.



I think this habit does not show quickly or the impart is not instant so it makes people feel like it has no effect or threat to the health just as it sounds or as it is claimed.



Most people that feels the effect mostly are the set of people that do not exercise daily or that finds it difficult to move from place to another on bear legs.

Eating late at night has a lot of dangers attached to it. There's a difference between eating late at night and then staying awake so that the food can digest and eating late at night and going to bed straight away. While neither of those is advised, the second is way worse. When you're done eating, you should wait for the food to digest before lying down or falling asleep. This way the food gets digested properly and you get to do away with any problem that could ensue.

A major problem is indigestion. When you eat late at night, you're bound to have indigestion. If there's one thing that makes me uncomfortable, it's having indigestion. When that happens, I find it hard to eat, or even sleep. All I do is drink water until I can get rid of the food that wasn't digested properly. It's a hassle really.

@Victoria: The problem is not just digestion alone.

When you eat late night meals, the body converts it to energy which would be used by the body.

But since the body is not carrying out an biochemical or physical activities like walking, movements etc....

The body doesn't use the energy.

So as a result of this, the body converts this energy to fat and it is stored in the body.

Which is why late night meals is one of the major causes of body fat.

The truth is that people claim that they want to have flat tummy and want to have good fitness and slim body and all that but they do not want to give what it takes.

Studies and research has made it known that eating late at night is not good for the health as the organ of the body that is responsible for digestion is meant to be resting mostly at that period of time.

Once someone stays late to eat at night then the food will be in the stomach which is which is meant to have digested and to do good in the body system but the other is a case as it will work the other way around.

Just as you have highlighted and listed the various disadvantages and problem this can cause I know and I'm very sure that lots of people will still find it hard to do mostly in Africa here.

The reason we still back at night and we eat later night is majorly because were brought up like that and I know for many people to change it will be very tasking and very hard to do.

But for health sake I think it is worth it. It is good we change this attitude and we trust much as we can do it early so that the organ of the body can relax and function at the right time timing do good to the body when it is mine to do it

Learn to eat your break fast like a king, lunch like a queen and dinner like a pupper.
This is the best health tip you can give to anyone as eating last night food is not hygienic in any way.
Late night meals can spike your blood sugar level.
Aside that when you eats meals in the night it could also ruin your sleep as the body would spend more time digesting your food rather than resting.
Late night could also lead to increase in body weight thereby causing a person to become fat...

Many attimes people have no idea of the threat they cause to their health when they eat late night meals.

First things first it could lead to Obesity, which might affect your movement on the long run.

It always prevents you from sleeping well due to the digestion that would be taking place at that point in time.
It increases the blood sugar of the body because at this time the body doesn't use the sugar to carry out any activities in the body because it's already at night and the body needs to rest.
It could also result to heart problems on the long run.
Make sure u eat your break fast like a king and your dinner like a pupper.

Eating late at night is not ideal as there are one bad health benefits like high blood sugar, increase in blood pressure, increase in body weight, etc
It is believed that you eat your break fast like a king and your dinner like a pupper.
But the side effect of taking late night meals is dependent on what is eaten.
According to research the intake of protein at late night meals I e 30 minutes before meals, it helped to reduce the sugar levels in the body.
So it is dependent on the meal....

As for me I usually eat late at night ,but of recent I stopped it because I have discovers the danger in it .
Eating late at night is not good enough because sometime it aid indigestion in which the food will not digest properly because when you eat late at night you will go to bed and sleep immediately.
It is advisable to eat at least two hours before going to bed .
