277_Q&A: Is Breakfast Overrated, Does Late-Night Eating Ruin Your Sleep, and How Many Calories Should You Really Eat?

by | Feb 4, 2025

Welcome to The Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show 

If you’re looking for real nutrition strategies that help you build a strong, lean body without the BS of restrictive dieting, then you’re in the right place.

I’m Coach Ben, and for the past 20 years, I’ve helped thousands of men take control of their nutrition, fitness, and overall health—without sacrificing their careers, families, or sanity.

 What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • The truth about breakfast—does it actually matter?
  • How meal timing impacts energy, fat loss, and decision-making.
  • The common mistake most people make with their meal structure (and how to fix it).
  • Why late-night eating can sabotage your sleep and metabolism.
  • A smarter way to determine how many calories you should eat daily.

We’ve all heard the phrase: “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” But is it really? In this episode, I break down the science and my real-world coaching experience to reveal whether breakfast is truly necessary for optimal health and fat loss. We also discuss how meal timing affects energy levels, satiety, and long-term success—and why you might want to rethink your dinner habits.

I also share a simple, no-BS approach to figuring out how many calories you should be eating daily, without relying on generic online calculators.

If you’re ready to take control of your nutrition and stop guessing, this episode is for you.
