The constant-little-by-day staves off hunger. But the nighttime eating is more of a balanced blood sugar thing, really... a staving-off-diabetes thing. Not that my blood sugar is out of whack, but my parents both have adult-onset and I wish to prevent it.

Another fact we got....not eating doesn't necessarily help the blood sugar issue, as bizzarre as it sounds, not eating can be worse for the blood sugars since the liver will produce sugars even if you haven't taken in any calories or carbs. Keeping your blood sugars balanced is the best defense against the onset of adult diabetes for sure. A great snack if you like peanut butter is 2 tbs peanut butter and celery sticks....a simple carb count of 1 serving and negative calories in the celery.
