What does 4:36 PM reveal about your dietary pattern?

Did you know that 4:36 may be more than just a passing time? (Watch the video clip above) Syrian pharmacist Fadi Abbas, who holds a master’s degree in pharmaceutical sciences and specializes in food chemistry, said that the human body is subject to a biological clock that affects various functions, including the speed of blood flow. In the morning, with the advent of light, blood flow increases and the body becomes more alert.

At night, with the onset of darkness, blood flow decreases, which makes choosing the foods we eat at this time important. Abbas, the owner of the “ph.fadiabbs” account on Instagram, explained that 4:36 is not a mandatory time to stop consuming food, but rather a metaphor to simplify the idea.

In general, it is preferable to eat sugars and fats in the first half of the day, and focus more on proteins during the afternoon and night.
