Lower your risk of heart disease and heart attack with Meta Daily Heart Health —>> Here’s How <<—
Many of us have already made a run for the nutrition hills in pursuit of a heart healthy life. We’ve gone as far as changing grandma’s secret Sunday dinner recipes to eat healthier, increasing our activity levels, losing weight, better managing our blood pressure and exchanging sugary drinks for bottled water.
Kudos to these steps in the right direction, however, it ain’t over just yet. Research from the Harvard School of Public Health published by the American Heart Association is showing that it’s not just about what we eat but when we eat that may contribute to an increased risk for heart disease.
In a prospective study conducted over the course of 16 years, the eating times and patterns of 26,902 male health professionals were evaluated to determine if eating patterns played any role in the development of heart disease. All participants were free of cardiovascular disease and cancer at the beginning of the study and modest differences in diet, physical activity, smoking and other lifestyle factors were considered.
At the conclusion of the study it was found that those who skipped breakfast had a 33% higher risk of heart attack or death compared to those who did not skip breakfast. The study also suggested that men who ate late at night had a 55% higher risk of heart disease than those who did not.
