From what I've read, it takes around 24h in general for something to get from your plate to the bowl...
Most liquids such as juices and refined sugar in general take less then an hour before being converted into energy. If you walk after meals you have greater chances to digest well and have less energy stored as fat but a nap just after can help gain weight. This is why it's better to avoid midnight snacks and snacks before bedtime since most of these extra cal will be stored as fat. It's better to eat a lighter but satisfying supper filled with veggies and grains that are high in fiber. Fiber is the slowest thing to digest and it's why you are 'filled' for a longer time. Beware that most salad sold contain Iceberg salad which is mostly water, the emptiest veggie, quickly digested so doesn't fill as much!

It additionally relies upon on what you're ingesting. particular meals, ones severe in fiber, vegetables, and lean protein digest so plenty greater as we communicate than meals that are severe in sodium and fat. additionally, maximum human beings make dinner their greatest meal - no longer continually a sturdy theory. Having your greatest meal earlier interior the day might supply it greater time to digest.
