class=\"c-article-content c-article-content--health js-article-content\">\n<p>The last meal of the day does more than simply end the evening \u2014 it may also affect how well we sleep and what we choose to eat the next morning. That\u2019s the conclusion of a study led by the University of Granada and published in the &#8216;European Journal of Nutrition&#8217;. <em>(source in Spanish)<\/em><\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"c-ad u-show-for-mobile-only\">\n<div class=\"c-ad__placeholder\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-ad__placeholder__logo\" src=\"https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/website\/images\/logos\/logo-euronews-stacked-outlined-72x72-grey-9.svg\" width=\"72\" height=\"72\" alt loading=\"lazy\"><span>ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"c-ad u-show-for-desktop\">\n<div class=\"c-ad__placeholder\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-ad__placeholder__logo\" src=\"https:\/\/static.euronews.com\/website\/images\/logos\/logo-euronews-stacked-outlined-72x72-grey-9.svg\" width=\"72\" height=\"72\" alt loading=\"lazy\"><span>ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe evening meal influences sleep, and sleep in turn affects breakfast habits the next day,\u201d the researchers explain. Rather than a one-way relationship, the study points to a two-way connection in which diet and sleep continuously influence each other.<\/p>\n<p>To explore this link, the researchers followed obese men and women for 14 consecutive days under real-life conditions. Participants recorded their meals, especially dinner and breakfast, while their sleep was objectively monitored using accelerometers and sleep trackers.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike laboratory-based studies, this approach allowed researchers to observe everyday habits as they naturally occur. As the authors point out the goal was to better understand how food and sleep interact in daily life, where many factors come into play at the same time.<\/p>\n<h3>Why dinner affects sleep<\/h3>\n<p>One of the study\u2019s main findings is that the nutritional composition of dinner is closely linked to sleep quality that same night. According to the researchers, meals high in calories, fat, cholesterol, protein, alcohol, red meat or fried foods were associated with poorer sleep.<\/p>\n<p>By contrast, certain foods appeared to support better rest. Dinners richer in carbohydrates, olive oil and oily fish were linked to improved sleep quality. The findings suggest &#8220;the nutritional components of the evening meal may influence different sleep parameters&#8221;.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget widget--type-image widget--size-fullwidth widget--animation-fade-in widget--align-center\" data-ratio=\"0.5625\">\n<div class=\"widget__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"widget__ratio widget__ratio--auto\">\n<div class=\"widget__contents\">\n<figure class=\"widget__figure\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"widgetImage__image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/74\/59\/28\/808x454_cmsv2_5f946e0b-3087-5b30-b031-ea65cd95a031-9745928.jpg\" alt=\"Dinners higher in carbohydrates, oily fish and olive oil are linked to better sleep quality. \"><figcaption class=\"widget__caption\"><span class=\"widget__captionWrap\"><span class=\"widget__captionText\">Dinners higher in carbohydrates, oily fish and olive oil are linked to better sleep quality. <\/span><span class=\"widget__captionCredit\">Canva<\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>That said, the researchers caution that the study was observational, meaning it cannot prove direct cause and effect.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\" lang=\"en\">Related<\/b><\/div>\n<ul class=\"c-widget-related__list\">\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\"> Getting enough sleep may be the key to staying healthy, new research finds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Sleep also shapes eating habits<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The relationship also works in the opposite direction: sleep quality appears to influence what people eat the following morning. The researchers found that &#8220;poorer sleep quality is associated with less healthy breakfast habits&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, the data point to several patterns:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>People who woke up later tended to consume more calories at breakfast.<\/li>\n<li>More fragmented sleep was associated with higher sugar intake and lower fibre consumption.<\/li>\n<li>Longer sleep duration was linked to healthier overall breakfast quality.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These findings reinforce the idea that sleep is not simply a result of diet, it can also shape future food choices.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\" lang=\"en\">Related<\/b><\/div>\n<ul class=\"c-widget-related__list\">\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">Intermittent fasting offers no greater weight loss than standard diets, study finds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h3>A cycle that repeats every day<\/h3>\n<p>According to the researchers, one of the study\u2019s most important contributions is showing how closely food and sleep are connected in everyday life. Dinner, sleep and breakfast appear to form part of the same cycle, where small changes in one area can influence the others.<\/p>\n<p>While the effects observed in the study were relatively modest, the findings offer new insight into how daily habits interact. The researchers believe this could eventually help improve obesity prevention and treatment strategies by considering not only what people eat, but also when they eat and how well they sleep.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>                                  Go to accessibility shortcuts<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-article-partage-commentaire u-align-items-center u-display-flex\"><span

That\u2019s the conclusion of a study led by the University of Granada and published in the &#8216;European Journal of Nutrition&#8217;. (source in Spanish)\u201cThe evening meal influences sleep, and sleep in turn affects breakfast habits the next day,\u201d the researchers explain. Rather than a one-way relationship, the study points to a two-way connection in which diet and sleep continuously influence each other.To explore this link, the researchers followed obese men and women for 14 consecutive days under real-life conditions. Participants recorded their meals, especially dinner and breakfast, while their sleep was objectively monitored using accelerometers and sleep trackers.Unlike laboratory-based studies, this approach allowed researchers to observe everyday habits as they naturally occur. As the authors point out the goal was to better understand how food and sleep interact in daily life, where many factors come into play at the same time.Why dinner affects sleepOne of the study\u2019s main findings is that the nutritional composition of dinner is closely linked to sleep quality that same night. According to the researchers, meals high in calories, fat, cholesterol, protein, alcohol, red meat or fried foods were associated with poorer sleep.By contrast, certain foods appeared to support better rest. Dinners richer in carbohydrates, olive oil and oily fish were linked to improved sleep quality. The findings suggest &#8220;the nutritional components of the evening meal may influence different sleep parameters&#8221;.That said, the researchers caution that the study was observational, meaning it cannot prove direct cause and effect.Sleep also shapes eating habitsThe relationship also works in the opposite direction: sleep quality appears to influence what people eat the following morning. The researchers found that &#8220;poorer sleep quality is associated with less healthy breakfast habits&#8221;.Specifically, the data point to several patterns:People who woke up later tended to consume more calories at breakfast.More fragmented sleep was associated with higher sugar intake and lower fibre consumption.Longer sleep duration was linked to healthier overall breakfast quality.These findings reinforce the idea that sleep is not simply a result of diet, it can also shape future food choices.A cycle that repeats every dayAccording to the researchers, one of the study\u2019s most important contributions is showing how closely food and sleep are connected in everyday life. Dinner, sleep and breakfast appear to form part of the same cycle, where small changes in one area can influence the others.While the effects observed in the study were relatively modest, the findings offer new insight into how daily habits interact. The researchers believe this could eventually help improve obesity prevention and treatment strategies by considering not only what people eat, but also when they eat and how well they sleep.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/health\/2026\/05\/07\/food-sleep-study&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/74\/59\/28\/1200x675_cmsv2_650c9131-8526-5063-97ed-4f5d8e6d9a81-9745928.jpg&#8221;] Health news Around 40 passengers left hantavirus-hit cruise ship after first death Travel News Airport habits exposed: The behaviours travellers hate most Business Maersk profit drops, maintains 2026 outlook despite Hormuz uncertainty Europe News Two drones from Russia crash in Latvia, army says Health news Around 40 passengers left hantavirus-hit cruise ship [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-1922259","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1922259","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1922259"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1922259\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1922259"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1922259"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1922259"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
