Sugar In The Afternoon
Tradition, culture and habits play a great part in our food choice. According to a team of researchers from Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia, and Liverpool University, UK, just as people rarely have alcohol in the morning and may smoke more at night, so they also associate unhealthy foods with later times of the day.
At the beginning of the day, body and mind may both may be determined to eat healthily but that resistance gradually wears down as the day goes on. Finally, our evaluation of food varies from hour to hour. And apparently sugary foods are more appreciated - and allowed - in the afternoon than in the morning.
The report was published on the journal Food Quality and Preference.
