Myth busters 1 - Eating before bed.

Late night snacking is not the culprit
Source: theage.com.au
If you've spent any time looking for secrets of weight loss you would have probably encountered many so-called internet experts claiming that you shouldn't eat before bed.

This is simply not true. There is no evidence behind it. It was deduced from a study that correlates late night eating with people who suffer from obesity. The people that were studied in the experiment who were found to be late night snackers also happened to eat more than the average person. As you can see here, it was just a case of causation vs correlation. In fact, there is even a scientific study conducted later on that disproves this myth. You can read about it here.

The only way to slim down is to count calories for weight loss.

Food doesn't magically multiply when it goes down your throat late at night. That's the cold hard fact. Hungry before bed? Don't hesitate to have a tasty mango smoothie or any other meal for that matter as long as you manage a caloric deficit throughout the day. If you're used to eating before bed, some foods such as a bit of dark chocolates or a sugar-free banana milkshake can help you get to sleep thanks to their sleep-inducing qualities

The bottom line? Eat before bed if you like, but make sure you still follow the golden rule of weight loss- maintaining a calorie deficit.
