People in a trial eating nearly half their daily calories at breakfast were less hungry during the day.
People's metabolism was precisely measured using doubly labelled water, which is denser than normal water and can be tracked as it leaves the body.found the timing of a big meal made no difference to how many calories were burned, to people's resting metabolic rate or the amount of weight they lost.Prof Alexandra Johnstone said that was likely to be crucial in the real world when the amount of food available was not being controlled.
Prof Johnstone said there were ideas around the brain's appetite and reward systems being "more in tune for the first meal of the day" as it breaks the overnight fast."People are trying to maximize their sleep and don't have time in the morning to either prepare or sit down and eat a larger meal, and therefore, by default, eat a larger evening meal," said Prof Johnstone.
