In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Eshanka Wahi, a Dubai- and Delhi-based culinary nutrition and holistic wellness coach and founder of Eat Clean With Eshanka, revealed how your dinner timings can impact the early morning cravings. A lot of people nowadays finish their dinner late at night and just after that they go to sleep. The next morning, they wonder why they are craving something sweet. Tea and biscuits suddenly sound more appealing.

Here’s what a nutritionist wants you to know “When someone tells me they’re waking up starving or craving sugar every single morning, I don’t just ask about breakfast. I ask about dinner. A late dinner isn’t automatically a bad one. You’ve got late meetings, travel, family dinners that run long. Eating late once in a while isn’t going to wreck your health,” added Wahi. When you’re eating late, sleeping late, and not sleeping well, your morning hunger and cravings are probably being shaped by the whole routine, not just the meal.
And I ask about sleep,” said Eshanka. “I’m not a fan of rules like “never eat after 8pm” that just don’t work for most people’s lives. Late dinners usually come attached to late nights , according to Eshanka.
Eshanka Wahi highlighted that dinner timing can absolutely shape how you feel the next morning, though. It’s not only about the time of having dinner but also what you ate, how much, and when you went to sleep after eating.
