Most research on the health effects of late-night eating center on sleep, diabetes, obesity, and acid reflux or GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease).\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Dadigiri and her coauthors analyzed the health data of 11,149 participants from the 2005 to 2010 cohort of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The researchers also included more than 4,100 patients from the 2013 to 2017 period of the American Gut Project, now called the Microsetta Initiative. More recent data didn\u2019t have all the details the authors wanted, said Dadigiri, who is also a resident physician at New York Medical College at Saint Mary\u2019s General Hospital and Saint Clare\u2019s Denville Hospital, both in New Jersey.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cFew prior studies have explored the timing of meals, or the combination of stress with late-night eating, on bowel function,\u201d said Dr. Geoffrey Preidis, associate professor of pediatrics in the division of gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition at Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children\u2019s Hospital, via email.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cThis is important because stress and excess late-night eating often go hand in hand,\u201d Preidis, who wasn\u2019t involved in the research, added.\n    <\/p>\n<h2>\n        Meal timing and the gut\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            In the new research, the authors defined chronic physiological stress by participants\u2019 composite allostatic load score \u2014 which involves eight cardiovascular, metabolic and inflammatory biomarkers, such as blood pressure, cholesterol and body mass index.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Late-night eating on its own didn\u2019t affect gut health or function, indicating that the combination with stress may be \u201cthe danger,\u201d Dadigiri noted in her presentation.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<header>\n<span>\n      Related article\n    <\/span>\n<\/header>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Doctors are seeing younger patients with hemorrhoids, and scrolling while sitting on the toilet may be partly to blame.\" class=\"wp-image-2057\" height=\"144\" src=\"https:\/\/relocationtimess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/52e6c6d8edaf0dac6717afb5ee233d17.jpg\" width=\"256\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<span>Doctors are seeing younger patients with hemorrhoids, and scrolling while sitting on the toilet may be partly to blame.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<figcaption>baona\/iStockphoto\/Getty Images<\/figcaption>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\n<span>Using the phone while you poop greatly raises hemorrhoid risk, new study says<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<div>5  min read<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            The researchers\u2019 analysis of the American Gut Project participants found that having both nighttime eating habits and high stress levels also was associated with significantly lower diversity of bacteria in their gut microbiome.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cThe gut microbiota is the collection of all organisms \u2014 including bacteria, viruses, and fungi \u2014 that live in the intestines,\u201d Preidis said.

There could be differences between the foods consumed by people who ate at earlier times and the foods eaten by people at night.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            If nighttime meals consisted of ultraprocessed foods, for example, those have been associated with frequent bowel issues like constipation, Chey, chief of the division of gastroenterology and hepatology at Michigan Medicine, said. The research also lacked details on potential medical conditions or medication use.\n    <\/p>\n<div>\n<header>\n<span>\n      Related article\n    <\/span>\n<\/header>\n<section>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"White toilet bowl in a bathroom.

Disruptions might affect hormones, immune activation, gut-brain signaling, and motility of the stomach and intestines.\u201d\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Motility refers to how food moves through the digestive tract.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            A 2024 study found that limiting eating to between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. can reduce inflammation in the gut, which can lead to gut dysbiosis, an imbalance in gut microbial organisms, Dadigiri said. Having high levels of the stress hormone cortisol alone can also cause this imbalance.\n    <\/p>\n<h2>\n        Bedtime best practices\n<\/h2>\n<p>\n            While the abstract itself isn\u2019t enough to offer specific lifestyle recommendations, these experts do have advice that\u2019s good to follow for your gut and other health concerns regardless.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Generally, not eating in the three to four hours before bedtime is best so there\u2019s ample time for food to empty from the stomach, said Dr. Kyle Staller, director of the Gastrointestinal Motility Laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital and associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n            Otherwise, your body has to divert energy from other important processes that occur during rest to a digestive tract that should be inactive, Staller, who wasn\u2019t involved in the research, said.
