the right time due to their busyness 


or laziness.   


Below are some guidelines 


to follow to schedule your meals in 


a day to maintain good health.

healthy diet. 



Here are some guidelines for 


creating your meal schedule. 


breakfast Your body needs a lot of 


energy in the morning, so it's 


important to provide it with the 


right amount of energy. 



Breakfast is often overlooked, but 


starting the day on an empty 


stomach can hurt you so


 Best way  is to eat breakfast within 


30 minutes of waking up


 and before 10 am. 



Health experts say that not having 


breakfast is a cause of great harm 


to health. 



The best breakfast foods include 


eggs, yogurt, fruit, milk and coffee. 



Lunch The habit of postponing 


lunch due to work and deadlines 


can lead to overeating or making 


less healthy choices later in the day.

 


It is best practice to eat lunch four 


or five hours after breakfast,


  if you eat breakfast at 


7 am, plan to eat lunch at 11 am or 


noon. Research has shown that 


eating lunch earlier can help with 


weight management. 

 


Dinner times should be set on the 


same schedule as the first 


meal.


 Avoid eating high-calorie foods 


before bed as this can disrupt sleep 


quality and lead to chronic 


diseases. 



Try to avoid overeating 


And make sure to maintain a gap of four to five hours between lunch and dinner.



 Before exercise 


The timing of your pre- and post-


workout meals is critical to the 


results of your exercise routine.

 


Fuels your body one to four hours 


before exercise, depending on how 


your body tolerates food. Avoid 


eating before exercise as it can 


cause stomach upset.

 


After exercise Try to eat within an 


hour of completing intense 


exercise, focusing on carbohydrate 


or protein intake after an exercise 


session.
