@BrandonLuuMD I thought your resting metabolic rate is lowest around 4-6 AM and peaks in the late afternoon. What IS higher in the morning: insulin sensitivity. Better insulin response + higher cortisol = efficient fuel processing. https://t.co/InBmq…

That said, recent work has indicated that rhythms in postprandial energy expenditure do not exist per se, and previous findings are a consequence of circadian RMR. Ref: https://t.co/SATdILhIy8

And while much attention was placed on the hypothesis that differences in energy expenditure were the cause, more recent research has called that into doubt. https://t.co/9BK8l4FT7i
