Can you really lose weight if you don't eat at noon

4hw.org: non eating at noon originated from Buddhism. It's a Buddhist practice commandment. It means that after lunch, you can't eat anything except drinking water until the next day. It's now regarded as the top secret of health and weight loss by many people. Is non eating at noon really effective?

Rumor: "don't eat at noon" means "at noon" (from 11:00 to 1:00 p.m.) after that, until dawn the next day, they don't eat any more. In the minds of many people who lose weight, "don't eat after lunch" is a good recipe for losing weight. Some people even think it's a "regimen" and insist on it for many years.

Truth: if people are in a state of fasting for a long time, there will be some abnormal reactions in the body -- the two hormone contents regulating body weight will greatly deviate from the normal value: brain gut peptide that can increase appetite, stimulate hunger, accelerate gastric emptying and gastric acid secretion will increase rapidly; leptin that can reduce appetite and inhibit fat cell synthesis will decrease significantly. If so, people will not be thin after lunch, but will be more likely to be fat.

Eating is better for your health than not having dinner. It's better to have dinner between 5:00 and 7:00, and try to keep it regular; have a light dinner, and eat lean meat or eggs with short muscle fiber and good digestion; eat more vegetables and coarse grains.

Compared with the ancients, modern people have a large amount of activities at night. They often go to bed in the early morning. If they don't eat dinner or even stop eating, they will lack energy, and there is gastric acid in the human stomach. If they don't eat for a long time, it may cause damage to the gastric mucosa, and ulcer and other diseases will appear for a long time.
