Over Eating in Night Meal
Eating and Overeating at night iscommon among diabetics Persons.
The biggest issue is that nighttime is when most of us have more time to
sit down for a big meal. Then we turn on the TV and continue to nosh.
If this describes you , your not ALONE. Clinical experience suggests
that most overweight people with diabetes eat more calories at night
than any other time of day.
A big shot of calories at night is exactly the opposite of what you
really need. At night your metabolism winds down as your body prepares
for sleep. In terms of physiology, this is when your body needs calories
the least, so those you take in are more likely to be stored as fat.
What's more, gorging on food late in the day makes your body work hard at
digestion, hindering the quiet process of tissue repair and muscle
building that takes place during sleep - which is extremely important
if you are following your exercise program.
Eating late a night can also make you toss and turn in bed, disrupting
your sleep and making your blood control even harder.
Last but not least, eating in the wee hours may contribute to high blood
sugar when you wake up in the morning.
So does all this mean you have to nosh on your fingernails and nothing
else while you watch TV in the evening? Here are a couple of things
that will help you out.
1. If you are genuinely hungry, its fine to have a small low GI snack,
but be sure you are not just shoveling in food out of habit or because[removed][removed]
you are bored.
2. If you do happen to eat a little too much in the evening, take your diabetic recommended medicine as advised.
