Why no sugar/food after dark? Any links?

Sugar gives you energy, makes you hyper. Energy and hyper not conductive to sleep. nightime is sleeptime. As least that is what your body expects when not amped on caffeine, sugar and other stimulants.

Food provides energy and when it isn't burned turns into fat.

Looks like the juries out and many evidence still points to the total amount of calories in/out over the day is the only defining factor.
