According to a study published in the journal *Nutrients*, nighttime eating can be a common occurrence and is often driven by hormonal shifts related to our sleep-wake cycle. This means that feeling hungry at 4am isn't unusual, but knowing what and how to eat can make all the difference for your sleep quality and overall health.

Research indicates that eating the majority of your calories later in the day can increase your risk of metabolic diseases. This phenomenon might explain why you are so much hungrier at night and struggle to control cravings after dinner.

According to a study published in the journal *Physiology & Behavior*, sleep deprivation can disrupt hormones like ghrelin (which increases hunger) and leptin (which signals fullness), leading to late night hunger. This guide explores practical ways to address and fix this common issue, helping you regain control over your eating habits and get a better night's rest.
