Similarly Ayurveda (comes from Hindu sages) they say the opposite of what i was taught in school. I remember a nutritionist coming
in to tell us to have a heavy breakfast, medium sized lunch and light dinner.Ayurvedaa recommends the lunch meal being the heaviest as it lines up with your Agni (digestive fire) being at peak and in synchronization with the Sun reaching its highest point.

Humour aside, three meals represents the sweet spot for labour to produce edible food in the circumstances we found ourselves in. Grazing would interfere with other necessities of life for most people once some kind of division of labour emerged.
- imtringued 5y agoThe heavy breakfast thing originates from the fact that peope fast during their sleep which recovers their insulin sensitivity so eating breakfast makes them feel more full. If you skip breakfast and fast until lunch then you are fasting for a longer period. The human body is basically a battery that gets recharged or discharged. A lot of diets are focused around charging your body more slowly instead of discharging it. No wonder they all fail.
