Everyone knows that what we eat has a big impact on our physical and mental wellbeing. However, studies have shown that eating foods at certain times of the day can also have a positive or negative effect. Some foods can give us that much-needed boost of energy in the morning, while others will prove useful when trying to fall asleep. Below, we have outlined the best time of the day to indulge in some of your favorite foodstuffs.

Whole grain brown rice contains plenty of calcium, fiber, magnesium, and potassium. To add to its nutritional value, it also has a low glycemic index which means that its energy content is released slowly. Therefore, this should be eaten at lunch to help keep hunger at bay.

 
 Oranges and Apples

These are acidic foods, so they are best eaten in the morning or as a snack during the day. The reason for this is because you really wouldn’t want to go to bed on a heavy stomach.

Yogurt
