It is preferable to miss calories for the day than to eat later, as late eating negatively impacts resting heart rate and sleep.

“44 bpm was my resting heart rate just before doing to sleep last night. It gave me a perfect night's sleep.”

“Measure your resting heart rate before bed. After years of working to master high quality sleep, my RHR before bed is the single strongest predictor of whether I'll get high quality or low quality sleep. Eating earlier will lower your RHR at bedtime.”

“Sleeping heart rate is 47-50 bpm, most influenced by the last time I ate and total daily calories.”

“The lower my resting heart rate, the better I sleep. The higher my resting heart rate, the worse my sleep.”

“The lower the heart rate, the better the sleep.”

“+ eat hours before bed + wind down routine 42 bpm and perfect sleep awaits.”

“Last night, it was 40 bpm. Guaranteed a perfect night's sleep.”

“It's remarkable how reliable RHR is in predicting sleep quality.”

“If my RHR is 55-57, I'll lose 30-35% sleep quality.”

“Eating earlier and lighter is an excellent cultural shift. It lowers your resting heart rate before bed and improves sleep quality.”

“the earlier I eat the better my sleep so I would encourage all of you to trial that eat earlier”

“First my resting heart rate became my best predictor of how well I would sleep so when it was between 46 and 50 I was almost guaranteed a perfect night sleep when I ate later in the day my resting heart rate would be increased to 55 56 57 and when I saw that it was guaranteed to about 30% less quality it is absolutely predictable”

“I bet you can drop your heart rate by 20 to 30% Before going to bed Yeah Okay When you do that your sleep is going to probably increase by 30 to 40% In quality”

“And so my lesson from Tuesday uh in eating later is I would rather go hungry and miss out on some calories for the day than I would try to pick up the calories later in the day”
