Chrononutrition in traditional European medicine-Ideal meal timing for cardiometabolic health promotion

扫码查看
Meal timing plays a crucial role for cardiometabolic health,given the circadian regulation of car-diometabolic function.However,to the best of our knowledge,no concept of meal timing exists in tradi-tional European medicine(TEM).Therefore,in this narrative review,we aim to define the optimal time slot for energy intake and optimal energy distribution throughout the day in a context of TEM and explore further implications.By reviewing literature published between 2002 and 2022,we found that optimal timing for energy intake may be between 06:00 and 09:00,12:00 and 14:00,and between 15:00 and 18:00,with high energy breakfast,medium energy lunch and low energy dinner and possibly further adjustments according to one's chronotype and genetics.Also,timing and distribution of energy intake may serve as a novel therapeutic strategy to optimize coction,a concept describing digestion and meta-bolism in TEM.
