Fasting For Life

Ep. 284 - Why Fasting Gets Harder at Night | Morning Eating Windows Reduce Hunger | Meal Timing for Fasting Success | Breaking Late Night Eating While Fasting | Front-Load Calories to Control Cravings | New Fasting Persona Quiz!

This episode reveals groundbreaking research from the Journal of Cell Metabolism showing that when you eat matters as much as what you eat for hunger control and fasting success. Dr. Scott and Tommy break down a study demonstrating that consuming 45% of daily calories at breakfast versus dinner dramatically reduces hunger and appetite without changing metabolism or weight loss. Learn why your physiology works against you when eating large evening meals, making it harder to close your eating window and stick to fasts. If you struggle with late-night cravings, can't seem to end your eating window, or find yourself breaking fasts in the evening, this episode provides the meal timing strategy to align your eating with your body's natural circadian rhythm for easier, more sustainable fasting.
