Abstract

This article describes how optimizing exercise timing can improve gut physiology and health. The goal is to avoid prolonged gut retention of digesta especially overnight. Suboptimal fermentation and eating-exercise timing are among shortcuts to unhealthy gut. It is suggested that early morning and evening physical work supplemented by small and minor evening and night food meals minimizes risks of unnecessary overdigestion and hindgut ill-fermentation, thus improving gut integrity and metabolism. Large evening meals must be avoided in any scenario. Day-time meals should be frequent but small. This helps ensure continuous and modest ingesta digestion and splanchnic metabolism and well-managed waste.

Highlights

  • Gut physiology and health are highly dependent on quantity and quality of digestion and fermentation

  • Intense late afternoon or early evening exercise complemented by large night meals avoidance will considerably reduce nocturnal digestion and unhealthy overfermentation

  • And sufficiently intense circadian exercise is an evolutionary proof for quality human life that is inspired by nature and its rhythms the foremost [22,23]

Summary

Introduction

Gut physiology and health are highly dependent on quantity and quality of digestion and fermentation. Imbalance in dietary provision of animal and plant foods makes human prone to digestive malfunction [1,2,3]. The over modernization trends of human ecology have reduced resting and driven overintake of unhealthy foods at suboptimal times of the circadian period. Increased work hours (not physically enough) and decreased sleeping time are exacerbated by no or little time for adequately intense physical exercise.
