Timing matters: lipid intake and its influence on menopausal-related symptoms
Consuming most of the energy and lipids later in the day was linked to higher prevalence of menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women with overweight or obesity. This eating pattern may potentially have adverse effects on the cardiovascular health of these women. Therefore, adopting chrononutrition behaviors, particularly favoring an earlier intake of energy and lipids, could prove beneficial as an additional measure in the nutritional therapy for postmenopausal women dealing with overweight or obesity.
