Going to bed ‘working’.

I have recently had the opportunity to study some traditional eastern nutrition and medical practices and one piece of advice has stayed in my mind. A prominent eastern doctor in California, Dr. Daoshing Ni, recommends one does not eat after 7pm, to ensure that your body doesn’t spend the night ‘working’. I can vouch first hand that allowing some proper time for digestion before hitting your bed makes for a more restful sleep and often a more energetic morning….this is worth trying in particular for individuals who find it difficult not to overeat in the evenings.
