Why Eating at Night Destroys Your Metabolism (Even Healthy Foods)
Most of us think health comes down to food, exercise, and maybe a supplement or two. But your body isn’t just counting what goes in—it’s counting time. Which poses the question: Why does eating at night destroy your metabolism?
In this encore conversation with Danielle Hamilton, better known as The Sugar Goddess, we dive into why circadian rhythm is the hidden force behind blood sugar, hunger, and hormones.
Your body isn't just tracking what you eat—it's tracking when you eat. The same bowl of oatmeal that fuels you at 8 a.m. can send your blood sugar crashing at 8 p.m. because your metabolism runs on a 24-hour clock that expects sunrise and sunset, abundance and scarcity, summer and winter.
If you've been doing everything right with diet and exercise but still struggling with metabolism, blood sugar, or weight, this episode reveals the missing variable your doctor never mentioned.
