In a previous post, major points indicated that eating a very early dinner, or skipping it entirely, alters the way the body burns fat and carbohydrates, resulting in reduced hunger and improved fat burning. The timing of meals remain significant in keeping healthy, in many ways. Here Maggie Fox, Today.com, reflects on important strategy to reduce the risk of heart disease:
