A friend of mine,Lucy was excited and came to work in New York alone. Since she worked late and lived alone, she was too lazy to cook on weekdays. On the way home from work, she just bought something to eat and solved her dinner problem. Two months ago, Lucy frequently experienced symptoms such as diarrhea. She went to the pharmacy and took some medicine to eat, but she still wasn’t good. As a last resort, she went to a large hospital for an examination but did not expect to be diagnosed with rectal cancer, and she has reached the middle and late stages. The doctor said that it was all caused by his poor eating habits.

What harm does not take dinner seriously?
1. Improper dinner can cause stomach problems
The stomach is the organ that most requires people to pay attention to eating time. It has a physiological peak period and a trough period. If dinner is not eaten or too late, the peak period of the stomach will be missed, and the gastric acid in the gastric juice will cause damage to the stomach due to insufficient food to neutralize. Over time, it can cause stomach problems such as functional dyspepsia, gastritis, and gastric ulcers.
2. Wrong eating at dinner can cause obesity
Generally, people have less activity at night. If the dinner is too full or too late, the calories brought by food cannot be fully consumed, and they will be stored by synthetic fat. Over time, people become obese and cause-related complications.
3. Incorrect eating dinner will cause more dreams
Dreaming is not accidental. If dinner is too full or too late, food will cause an excessive physiological burden on the stomach and stomach will cause unnecessary compression on other organs. After the central brain receives feedback, the excited brain will unconsciously make people dream, and long-term nightmares will not only make people feel tired but also induce neurasthenia.
4. Improper dinner can cause diabetes
If the dinner is too full or too late, the human body’s islet glands repeatedly secrete a large amount of insulin to process the heat brought by the dinner food. Over time, the islet gland function will be damaged ,and diabetes will occur.
5. Improper dinner can cause stones
According to research, the human body is at the peak of urination after eating for four or five hours. In this way, if the dinner is too late, the peak urination period will be postponed until late at night, often missed because of deep sleep. Over time, urine trapped in the bladder can induce stone production.
6. Improper dinner can cause bowel cancer
If the dinner is too full or too late, the food stays in the intestine due to inadequate digestion, and it will be affected by the intestinal flora to produce harmful substances that will react to the intestine and increase the incidence of intestinal cancer.

The misunderstanding of dinner
1. Dinner late
If you eat too late for dinner, you will miss the peak working period of the stomach, and the lack of food-neutral gastric juice will damage the stomach and cause stomach diseases. At the same time, the stomach working during the trough period cannot fully digest the food in the body, which affects the entire digestive system and causes various related diseases.
2. Dinner was too greasy
Dinner is too greasy, and the body cannot consume too many calories, which produces a lot of blood lipids. Over time, the accumulation of blood lipids can cause blood vessel blockages and atherosclerosis, which also increases the risk of hypertension and coronary heart disease.
3. Overeat at dinner
Over-eating at dinner will lead to the overload of various organs in the digestive system.It will also affect other organs, causing a variety of diseases, such as diabetes, gastric ulcer, bowel cancer, obesity ,and so on.
4. Eat too fast for dinner
If you eat too fast or too fast for dinner, the food will not be chewed and ground adequately. The rough diet will directly increase the abrasion of the stomach and increase the burden on the digestive function of the stomach. Over time, it will cause damage to the stomach, reduce gastric motility, and induce various gastric diseases.

How to eat dinner
1. Follow the principle of “appropriate breakfast, full lunch, and small dinner.”
Due to the relatively small amount of activity at night, dinner should not exceed 30% of the energy throughout the day. In this way, it will not overload the digestive system and avoid obesity and other problems.
2. It’s important to eat on time
Dinner is best set around six o’clock in the evening, preferably not more than nine o’clock. Because this period is the peak period of the human stomach work, it helps to digest dinner food fully, and also can control the urination time after dinner.
3. Pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetarian dishes for dinner
It is recommended to focus on the meat and vegetable mix for dinner, and not focus on delicious food. You can eat some lean or fish meat properly to supplement your nutrition. Besides, you can eat more vegetables and coarse grains to help the normal operation of the digestive system and promote the digestion of food eaten at dinner.
