Sorry but the body doesn't burn just-eaten food that quickly. > Reference please? Are you sure? :) Unless you somehow burned through all your carb stores before bed you're not going to be burning much fat while you sleep. > Explain ketone levels increase in the morning regardless of nightly meal composition Plus sleeping itself burns very few calories so don't expect to be melting away pounds by sleeping. > Exercise causing EPOC can be used in conjunction to reduce energy efficiency, increase energy loss as heat etc etc. You can alter BMR/RMR if you try.
