Nutritionist Explains Cinderella Rule for Weight Management and Sleep Timing

Imagine your body has a special nighttime schedule for getting strong and losing extra weight.

When you go to bed early, like before 11 o'clock, your body makes a helper hormone that burns fat and fixes muscles.

This helper works best before midnight.

If you stay up late, your body makes a different hormone that can make you feel hungrier and store more fat, especially around your tummy.

Going to bed early also helps your body manage sugar better and stops you from wanting to eat too much.

So, going to sleep on time is like giving your body the best tools to stay healthy and manage its weight, even better than just dieting or exercising a lot.
