A new study calls into the question the old adage that you should “eat like a king in the morning, a prince at noon, and a peasant at dinner.”
of the day, a new study suggests the timing of the highest calorie meal has no impact on the rate energy is burned.
“Our work suggests that the distribution of calories throughout the day does not influence energy metabolism or weight loss,” said study coauthor Alexandra Johnstone, a professor at the Rowett Institute at the University of Aberdeen in the UK. “Eating more calories at breakfast might be beneficial to control appetite throughout the rest of the day, so you can stick to the calorie restriction without feeling hungry.
Throughout the study, the volunteers’ total daily energy expenditure and weight were measured. After four weeks, the volunteers initially randomized to have a big breakfast were switched to have a big dinner and vice versa. When the researchers analyzed the energy expenditure and weight measurements, they found it made no difference whether the volunteers consumed a big meal in the morning or the evening.
The new study is “interesting,” said Dr. Megan Jenkins, a specialist in weight loss surgery and an associate professor of surgery at NYU Langone Health in New York.
