Healthy Eats– What Time to Eat
Question by Sophie Andrelica: What are the health differences between European eating times and American?
What are the health differences between European eating times and American? I am talking in regards of metabolism and health eating.
Europeans have a light breakfast, a heavy lunch at about 1 and a lighter dinner at about 8.
Americans have a large breakfast, a small lunch at around 12 and a large dinner around 6.
Do you think that the times that we eat contribute to the reasons that we eat all day?

its more of what you eat than at what times. the foods in europe are less precessed then in america. preservatives and hormones in our foods are the cause of the “obesity crisis” in america.

Preferably, please avoid eating after 8pm; in many north American cities, there are 24 hours businesses that cater foods, and that is really encouraging customers to overload their livers’ workloads in that the liver are supposedly doing its jobs to detox our bodies after a full day’s works or while resting for the rest of the night.
Most health consciencious consumers know that processed foods and deep fried foods are not recommended as superfoods, in fact they are foods that cause the obesity crisis in North America.
On the other hand, Europe tends to embrace healthy eats from less generic foods, processed foods, packaged foods, fast foods and large portioned meals.
Perhaps, one may learn a few facts about refined foods, deep-fried foods and packaged foods alike in the video below:-

europeans do generally eat healthier than us. we have so many fast food resturants here as we do houses. no wonder 60 percent of the adult males here are overweight.

Actually, most Americans nosh all day long. Drive past any fast food place at any time of the day and you’ll see the cars lined up at the drive through.

not all ‘Europeans’ are the same, the eating times you have described apply to nations like Spain and France
but the English,Germans,Scandinavians all eat more similarly to what you desribed as the American way, just so you know.
