Dinner is the last meal of the day; dinner should be taken at least two to three hours before going to bed this is to ensure the proper of the food you have taken. The evening meal or dinner should be very light and one should eat only 40-50% of the hunger.

“Take Dinner like a Beggar”, this saying tells us to take very less food in the dinner. Dinner has to be very light because almost all the time we don’t have to work and we sleep. During sleeping the body performs no physical activities so the metabolic rate is very slow so as the digestion process. If more food is taken than digestion will not be done in an effective manner. Hence we are told to take light dinner and it is also advisable to take dinner as early as possible before going to bed for the same reason.
