Many people often believe that they should not eat their last meal later than 3-4 hours before bedtime. At night, metabolism slows down, and adipose tissue begins to play a key role in metabolism. In other words, the presence of food in the stomach really prevents fat burning.
Since pre-diabetes (like full-fledged diabetes) is associated with the inability of the body to properly respond to consumed carbohydrates, in order to prevent it, it is necessary, first of all, to give up sweets. What can you eat with high blood sugar – a menu for a week.
Ghrelin is a human appetite hormone that controls the amount of food eaten, regulates intestinal motility and affects the synthesis of insulin and growth hormone. In the absence of food, the stomach produces ghrelin – a direct signal to brain neurons for actions related to the search for food.
Insulin is a hormone that regulates carbohydrate metabolism. It is responsible for converting food carbohydrate energy into energy for the body. Insufficient production of this hormone interferes with the utilization of glucose and raises blood sugar levels – which can be dangerous to health.
Would you like to know your chances of staying healthy in the next decade? Measure around your waist (with a soft tape 10 cm above the thighbone, without pulling in the stomach) – a figure above 90 cm for women and 100 cm for men indicates the presence of reserves of abdominal fat.
the question of how to eat less is tantamount to the question of how to eat fewer calories – and thus affect the maintenance of a stable weight or weight loss. Clearly, eating more frequently (as well as larger portion sizes) is associated with weight gain.

Insulin is a hormone that regulates carbohydrate metabolism in the human body. In fact, it is responsible for converting the energy of carbohydrates into energy for the needs of metabolism. Insulin also affects the processes of storing and releasing calories from energy depots.
Leptin is the key hormone that regulates satiety. It is produced in visceral fat and controls energy metabolism in the body, including affecting weight gain. Basically, it suppresses appetite and stops eating.
Insulin resistance is a metabolic disorder associated with a decrease in the body’s sensitivity to insulin. Despite the fact that a typical symptom of the disease is a sharp weight gain in the abdomen, in some cases, insulin resistance occurs in thin people.
