Eating meals early could reduce cardiovascular risk

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the ratchet. This means that diet plays a major role in the development and progression of these diseases.

The modern lifestyle of Western societies has led to specific eating habits such as eating dinner late or skipping breakfast. In addition to light, the daily cycle of food intake (meals, snacks, etc.) alternating with periods of fasting synchronizes the peripheral clocks, or circadian rhythms, of the body's various organs, thus influencing cardiometabolic functions such as blood pressure regulation. Chrononutrition is emerging as an important new field for understanding the relationship between the timing of food intake, circadian rhythms and health.

For their study, scientists used data from 103,389 participants in the NutriNet-Santé cohort (79% of whom were women, with an average age of 42) to study the associations between food intake patterns and cardiovascular disease. The researchers accounted for a large number of confounding factors.

The results show that having a first meal later in the day (such as when skipping breakfast), is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, with a 6% increase in risk per hour delay. For example, a person who eats for the first time at 9 a.m. is 6% more likely to develop cardiovascular disease than someone who eats at 8 a.m.

When it comes to the last meal of the day, eating late (after 9 p.m.) is associated with a 28% increase in the risk of cerebrovascular disease such as stroke compared with eating before 8 p.m., particularly in women. Finally, a longer duration of night-time fasting—the time between the last meal of the day and the first meal of the following day—is associated with a reduced risk of cerebrovascular disease, supporting the idea of eating one's first and last meals earlier in the day.

Slight time shifts for eating appear to help minimize cardio issues.

That said, with a lower cant diet, I find I am just not hungry even into the afternoon. I make myself have something, earlier, to have supplements.

“Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the ratchet.”

What does that mean?

Breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, dinner like a pauper.

Thing is, I am usually never hungry in the morning, so I make my eating window usually between 12 and 4 PM.

In Spain, dinner is in the 9-10pm range and they live longer than we do…

The food in Europe is so much better than here, with all the processed garbage we put in the food.

The linked article doesn't say that. The sentence actually reads:

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the world according to the Global Burden of Disease study, with 18.6 million annual deaths in 2019, of which around 7.9 are attributable to diet.

I don’t know how that word got there.

It’s not in the original article, and my deletions don’t seem to explain it.

I highly doubt this. Could it be that a person who gets up an hour earlier is more active? Possibly an average of 6% more active?

We do breakfast around 7, and “linner” around 3. And that does it.

If having dinner with friends, then that would be 5:00. Any later than that we wouldn’t be able to sleep.

Theres been something going on and when I bring it up people think Im cracking.

It was around 2017 that I noticed it started and at least for me became quite noticeable for a good while especially around here though its a good deal somewhat less now.

When I would post things there would be bits and chunks that appeared that were not in the post. If it was an article then it would have odd words that werent there originally, if it was my own post then deleted portions of edited sentences would reappear AFTER I hit post. Yes, absolutely after. It wasnt just me complaining about it at the time.

Very recently, so not the original issue, there is something that seems vaguely similar happening but I know the cause of that and it only happens when Im on my phone. My phone has something switched on, I dont even know what to call it so I cant switch it off, that tracks my typing. If I dont lift my finger far enough I see a little blue drag mark on the screen. Thereafter random parts of sentences disappear and/or the phone inserts random words of it own choosing in the place of a sentence fragment. Then everything goes back to normal until I see the blue drag marks again. I didnt turn on any kind of autocorrect function and Ive had this phone for years, it must be some kind of screw with the customer improvement that downloaded with an update.
