Is it true, /fit/?
Does eating late at night make you fat, even if it's relatively healthy food?
pic unrelated, but tempting.

eating more than you expend makes you fat. period.


that said, it's usually best to taper your meals during the day, from carb-heavy foods in the morning to protein-heavy food at night, with fats spread out throughout the day so you feel satiated. you don't have to do it strictly, but that's the best way to do it.

True but what the op said is also true. Since one's metabolism slows down during sleep and the fact that one isn't very active at night (after-all, your not moving), eating before you sleep is a bad idea since you aren't using the calories you just ate.

I've heard studies that suggest that simply isn't true, and it makes sense since your metabolism is slower at night regardless of whether you eat anything or not. It's not as if metabolic activity reduces the caloric count of food before it is digested.

OP you also need to learn that how healthy a food is does not determine the effect it will have on your weight. You need to look at the amount of calories in what you are eating.
