Study links late-night eating to higher liver disease risk

Researchers at Oregon Health and Science University reported that a large observational study of nearly 200,000 U. S. adults found people who eat after dinner have a 20-30 % higher chance of developing liver disease, and experts advised limiting food intake before bedtime. Earlier coverage of the same study noted similar risk increases.

ScienceAlert noted a 28 % higher risk of cirrhosis and a 36 % higher risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease among night eaters, while The Independent reported a 20-30 % rise in cirrhosis and fatty liver disease risk. An earlier AOL. com report echoed the 20-30 % increase in fatty liver disease and cirrhosis rates.
