Early evening dinnertime has various health advantages. Improved digestion is one of the main benefits. The body can process food more effectively if it is eaten before bed because the digestive system isn't interfered with by the horizontal position of sleep. This can support a more restful night's sleep by preventing problems like acid reflux and indigestion.
