Is it harmful to eat after 6 pm?

Probably everyone heard the recommendation not to eat after 6 pm. But is it really bad to eat in the evening?

It was assumed that only the total daily calorie intake is important, and not when and how often people eat.

There are now signs that time is also playing a role. Some studies show the health benefits of having more breakfast and less energy for dinner, said German food specialist Sabine Holzapfel.

The fact is that the digestive system, like our entire body, obeys biorhythms. It is most active in the morning, but less active in the evening and at night.
