In today's busy life, people's eating habits have become completely unbalanced from the routine. In such a situation, many people skip breakfast, while some eat very late at night every day. Eating late at night and skipping breakfast in the morning can gradually damage the health of your bones. Therefore, taking a balanced diet on time and maintaining circadian rhythm is important for bones. Today we will tell you about this in detail.
What is the effect of eating late at night and skipping breakfast in the morning on bones?
Relation between Circadian Rhythm and bones: Circadian rhythm is the internal clock of the body, which controls many biological functions like sleep, hormones, metabolism and bone formation. If you eat late at night or skip breakfast in the morning, then this natural rhythm gets disturbed. This affects the process of bone formation and breakdown (Bone Remodeling). Research has also revealed that bone cells (Osteoblasts and Osteoclasts) are also affected by the circadian clock.
Late-night Eating: The body needs time for digestion after dinner, but if you eat late and fall asleep immediately, the food is not digested properly. This also affects the absorption of calcium. Apart from this, eating late at night can slow down metabolism and lead to conditions like insulin resistance, which negatively affects bone health.
Skipping Breakfast: Breakfast is considered the most important meal for the body, as it provides energy and nutrition to the body after a long fast. If you skip breakfast regularly, the body may lack calcium, vitamin D and other essential nutrients, which are necessary for strengthening bones.
