There is unexplained difference regarding body energy usage if one eats most calories before noon or in the evening. With the former body spends like 100-200 more calories than with the latter. This is independent of sleeping patterns, what one eats and what one is doing. Even if one works night shifts, the same pattern persists. And it is not clear where exactly the extra energy is spent.
- aksss 5y agoWait, so about that night shift.. you mean “before noon” isn’t a relative reference to a period of time after waking, it’s an absolute reference to time of day regardless of when sleep takes place? That’s interesting.. irrespective of latitude (sunlight hours)?
- _0w8t 5y agoYes, this is in reference to absolute time as measured by highest point of Sun. The effect is so puzzling that there were plans to see if it exists in polar regions during winter time the last time I read about it.
