The relationship between food and physical well-being is clear, but Antonina affirms that many times the relationship between food and spiritual well-being is not given the same importance. She says that, for example, eating late or not thanking food properly can have repercussions on how the body works.
In fact, eating following hours has a significant effect on mental health, in a recent study of Harvard The behaviors of two groups of women were analyzed, the first only ate during the daytime while the second ate both during the day and at night. Those women who adopted the night shift had an increase in symptoms of depression by 26% and anxiety by 16%.
This showed that the time you eat does have an important impact on general health. The best times to eat, according to the Laboratory of Biological and Metabolic Rhythms of the National University of Mexicoson:
- Eat breakfast between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. or just an hour following waking up.
- Have lunch four or five hours following having breakfast, that is, approximately between 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m.
