Dr Mosley claims there is a strong correlation between time and weight loss and recommended people eat their evening meal between "7 to 7.30pm".
He also urged people to try and stop eating shortly after that. He said: "Try and stop eating by 8pm and then not eat anything with calories after that.
"The temptation is to eat cheese and biscuits late into the night. Although the idea that cheese will give you nightmares is a complete and utter myth, it will obviously be quite a lot of calories loaded on late at night.
“And we know the fat and sugar you eat later at night, it just hangs around in your system for much, much longer because your body is just closed down for night. Your digestive process will be closing down, and it really will not appreciate that late night snack.”
