It’s trained. Once the body is adapted to burning fat instead of carbs while fasted many people find focusing to be much easier since they’re running on a much more consistent fuel rather than a roller coaster of blood sugar spikes. Think of a slow burning furnace rather than a warehouse full of tinder. Atm you feel better after eating because your body is dependant on that hit. Research time-restricted eating, or as it’s called by most people, intermittent fasting.

Do you have any large studies demonstrating the effects of intermittent fasting on focus, versus eating three times a day?
