Do you think it's BAD to eat popcorn before going to bed? I always try to go to bed on an empty stomach I do drink liquid COLLAGEN before I go to sleep! It has alot of PROTEIN so it kinda of curbs the appetite! Only last night I worked out so hard I ate a whole bag of POPCORN it was (KETTLE CORN) uuummmm my fav!

i only eat the light butter popcorn. and having protein before bed is okay, your body needs it for recovery.

That is scary bad for you!

Kettle Korn averages:

You had a whole bag? That's about 2.5 servings - so multiply the above by 2.5. 325 calories?? 10 sugars??

Not only did you blow your whole day but you also consumed processed food and right before bedtime. Try to eliminate processed foods and added sugars to your diet.

Hopefully that was just a treat.

Myth: Consuming excessive calories before or after a workout doesn't cause you to metabolize them any differently.

This is my career. I have a ready answer for everything fitness.

Ya I know, but I Hiked for an hour then was at the GYM for another hour............. I was Really hungry I ate the whole bag I should of had OATMEAL I know!

It depends on the proteins.

You want to focus on foods that have a slow digestibility and are healthy for you. Protein foods OK before bed would be "casein" protein: cottage cheese, low-fat cheeses, whey protein, and natural peanut butter.

The pre-bedtime meal is very important. It's important to stay out of a catabolic state (muscle and tissue breakdown). It's important to keep the metabolism running high. You do burn calories and fat while you sleep (not as much as when you are awake), but it won't happen if you skip the last meal of the day. What will happen is your body goes into a catabolic state, and the next time you eat something your body will have a greater chance of storing it as fat.

I would NOT eat Protein before bed I drink (LIQUID COLLAGEN) It is suppose to help you sleep & I also take it for my knee problems ....

I have had 3 hand & 2 knee surgery's due to NO Cartilage because of Osteoarthritis Very painful, but I DON't let it stop me from LIVING my LIFE to the Fullest doing the things that make me feel good like HIKING & BOXING!

If you think that is scary bad I highly recommend you never take a look at what I eat. The fright will cause a massive heart attack, even with your strong heart and plaque free arteries.

I would eat popcorn before I would drink liquid collagen. That sounds nasty. What's liquid collagen?..........

Your so funny well it's just something that is already in your body....helps your ,bones teeth & hair, it is also suppose to be good for the cartilage......
