The American scientists have proved interrelation between disturbance of natural rhythms of an organism and weight augmentation.
Whether fluctuations of weight depend on food intake time? The answer to this question researchers of Northwest university have tried to find, the USA.

After at the people working in shifts, the excess weight problem has been found out, scientists have assumed interrelation between disturbance of natural circadian rhythms of an organism and weight augmentation.
For hypothesis acknowledgement experiment has been undertaken. Two groups of laboratory mice had equally high maintenance of Adepses in the ration. Difference between groups consisted only in feeding time.

The first group received nutrition at night, during time habitual for mice. Other control group fed in the afternoon whereas in natural conditions of dwelling it is rest time.

The mice receiving a forage during normal time for have shown 20 %-s' increase in weight, whereas the second skilled group - 48 % of an increase.

One of authors of research Fred Turek has declared, that their conclusions about existence of "improper" time for a food have proved to be true. According to scientists, food intake late at night when the organism is programmed on a dream, breaks a rhythm of ours of "internal hours" - the biological processes answering not only for a dream, but also for a metabolism.

The leading researcher of Northwest university Dyne Erbl asserts, that the dream is very important for a metabolism. Though she also does not consider as necessity to establish a rigid diet for each person, but, nevertheless, urges to avoid meal when the organism is adjusted on rest. It can lead to sharp augmentation of mass of a body.
But Erbl urges not to forget also and about caloric content of a food. Superfluous calories all the same will cause weight rising even if food time is chosen correctly.

Thus, called by many researchers in question stereotypes that is at night it is impossible, all the same have under itself the bases
