Early Dinner For Better Sleep? Experts Weigh In On Bryan Johnson’s 'No Food After 5 PM' Rule

Tech entrepreneur turned longevity advocate Bryan Johnson recently sparked a conversation around early dinners and mental health with a post on X. Known for his strict biohacking routines and data-driven lifestyle experiments, Johnson suggested that one of the best things people can do for their mental well-being is to finish eating hours before bedtime. In his post, he recommended setting a firm rule, no food after 5 PM, to avoid late-night indulgence that can disrupt sleep, weaken willpower, and lead to irritability the next day. One of the best things you can do for your mental health is finish eating hours before bed. Make a firm rule, i.e. no food after 5 pm. It will help you avoid late night indulgent eating that wrecks your sleep, which then crushes your willpower and makes you irritable. — Bryan Johnson (@bryan_johnson) March 9, 2026 While the idea of an early dinner resonates with many health enthusiasts, the practical aspects of such a rule often raise questions. To understand the concerns better, experts shared their insights on the impact of meal timing on sleep cycles, digestion, and gut health. Does The Exact Time Matter? According to Ms. Nabanita Saha who is a Chief Clinical Dietician at Manipal Hospital, the focus should not necessarily be on following a strict 5 PM dinner rule. Instead, she believes the key lies in maintaining enough time between the last meal and bedtime. Ms. Saha explains, " it's more important to have atleast 2-4 hrs time gap from the time one has its last meal to the time one sleeps. As there are many people who works late at night and strict 5 pm rule may not work for them. It can cause  hunger-induced insomnia." "Those who generally sleeps by 8-9 pm, a 5pm dinner rule will fits perfectly well. The objective is to give the body enough time to complete the postprandial phase, the period during which digestion and nutrient absorption are actively occurring, before the body begins its natural nighttime cooling and sleep preparation process." She added How Does Late-Night Eating Affect Sleep Cycles And Hormones? Ms. Saha says, "Eating late at night close to sleeping time effects one's health in many ways. It disturbs the body's natural clock known as Cardadian Rhythm, which regulates sleep, metabolism and hormone release." She explains that digestion requires energy and generates heat, a process known as thermogenesis. During quality sleep, the body’s core temperature naturally drops. But if a heavy meal is consumed close to bedtime, the digestive system remains active and the body stays warmer, making it harder to fall asleep. Hormonal balance can also be affected. Meals that stimulate insulin release may reduce the production of melatonin and human growth hormone. Growth hormone is crucial for tissue repair, muscle recovery, and metabolic regulation, and most of its release happens during the early stages of sleep. Because of this, having dinner at least two to four hours before bedtime is considered beneficial. Can Late Dinners Trigger Acid Reflux? Meal timing can also have a direct impact on digestive health, particularly for individuals prone to acid reflux. Dr. Prasanna K S who is a Consultant in Medical Gastroenterology at Manipal Hospital, explains that eating late at night can increase acid reflux. When someone lies down soon after eating, undigested food and stomach acid can flow back into the food pipe. He adds "in the absence of protective reflexes in the throat and mouth regurgitate and cause damage to lungs, throat and nose, and sometimes may cause sleep disturbance, hence it’s better to have an early dinner at least two and half to three hours of gap between dinner and bedtime." He also advises avoiding coffee, tea, oily foods, and spicy meals at night, as they may worsen reflux. What Happens To Digestion And Gut Health At Night? Digestion naturally slows down during the night as the body prepares for rest. Dr. Prasanna explains that the stomach and intestines slow their activity during nighttime. If food remains undigested, it can undergo bacterial degradation in the gut. This process may lead to bloating and gas while also encouraging the growth of harmful bacteria. Advice For People With GERD Or Indigestion Individuals dealing with GERD or chronic indigestion may need to be particularly mindful about their dinner timing and sleeping posture. "The patients with GERD, have to eat a light meal in the night two and half to three hours prior to the bedtime and sleep, preferably in left lateral position with head up B.Y. thirty to forty five degree angle." suggests Dr. Prasanna Disclaimer: The information provided in the article is shared by experts and is intended for general informational purposes only.

Air India Express Boeing 737 Suffers Nose-Wheel Failure During Landing At Phuket Airport

Phuket Air India Malfunctions: A Air India Express flight carrying 131 passengers experienced a nose-wheel malfunction while landing at Phuket International Airport in Thailand, airline officials confirmed on Wednesday. The aircraft involved was a Boeing 737 operating a scheduled service from Hyderabad to Phuket when the technical issue occurred during landing. Nose Landing Gear Damaged On Runway According to sources familiar with the situation, the aircraft’s nose landing gear sustained damage as it touched down at the airport. The malfunction left the aircraft unable to move from the runway, prompting immediate safety measures by airport authorities. Emergency procedures were activated to secure the plane and ensure the safety of passengers and crew members. Despite the mechanical issue, officials confirmed that all passengers and crew onboard were safe. Airport Temporarily Suspends Flight Operations Following the incident, airport authorities temporarily halted flight operations at Phuket International Airport as a precaution. The runway was closed while emergency teams assessed the situation and worked to remove the aircraft safely. Such disruptions are common in aviation when aircraft experience mechanical difficulties during landing, as airports must ensure the runway is completely clear before resuming operations. Airport teams are currently working to restore normal flight schedules once the aircraft is cleared from the runway. Airline Confirms Safety Protocols Followed In a statement, Air India Express said its crew followed all standard emergency procedures immediately after the landing issue was detected. The airline emphasized that passenger safety remained the top priority throughout the incident and that authorities were coordinating with airport officials to manage the situation. Mechanical issues during landing, particularly involving landing gear components, can cause operational disruptions at busy airports, even when there are no injuries or major structural damage.

ABP Live Pet First | UTI In Dogs: Signs And Symptoms Every Pet Owner Should Know

Just like humans, dogs can develop various health issues that may affect their daily comfort and overall quality of life. Regular veterinary check-ups, a balanced diet, and paying attention to behavioral changes play an important role in keeping them healthy. Sometimes, however, a seemingly small problem can signal a more serious condition. One such health concern in dogs is a Urinary Tract Infection, commonly referred to as a UTI. This infection occurs when harmful microorganisms enter and multiply in the urinary system. Although it may start with mild symptoms, the infection can cause significant discomfort for dogs if not identified and treated in time. Understanding the types, symptoms, causes, and risk factors can help pet owners recognise the problem early and seek timely care. ALSO READ: ABP Live Pet First: Is Your Pet Scratching Too Much? Watch Out For These Signs Of Seasonal Allergies Types Of UTIs In Dogs Urinary tract infections in dogs are generally categorised into two main types based on their cause and frequency. Simple Or Uncomplicated UTI:Also known as sporadic cystitis, this type occurs when there are no underlying medical conditions or contributing factors. Dogs with this type typically experience fewer than three urinary tract infections within a 12-month period. Complicated Or Recurrent UTI:This type is more complex and often appears in dogs with underlying medical issues or other predisposing factors. It may also occur in pets that have recently used antibiotics or those that have experienced more than three infections in a year. Signs And Symptoms Of A UTI In Dogs The symptoms of a urinary tract infection can vary, but many dogs display noticeable changes in their urination habits and behavior. Common signs include: Straining while trying to urinate Painful urination (dysuria) Passing small amounts of urine, sometimes in the form of dribbling Frequent urination Licking of the genital area or swelling in that region, sometimes with saliva stains on the fur Blood present in the urine Discharge from the genital area A stronger or unusual urine odor Increased thirst If the infection becomes severe or remains untreated, dogs may develop additional symptoms such as lethargy, fever, and reduced appetite. Causes Of UTIs In Dogs Most urinary tract infections in dogs are caused by bacteria that normally live on the skin or around the rectal area. These bacteria can travel up through the urethra and infect the urinary system. Some of the bacteria commonly associated with UTIs in dogs include: E. coli Staphylococcus Streptococcus Enterococcus Enterobacter Proteus species Although bacterial infections are the most common cause, viral and fungal infections can occasionally lead to UTIs as well. Risk Factors That Increase UTI Certain dogs are more likely to develop urinary tract infections due to specific risk factors. Female dogs generally experience UTIs more frequently than males, although dogs of any age or breed can be affected. Middle-aged to older dogs and those with weakened immune systems also face a higher risk. Additionally, dogs with certain medical conditions, such as Cushing’s disease, Diabetes Mellitus, or Kidney Disease, are more vulnerable to infections. Some breeds are also prone to developing urinary crystals and bladder stones, which can increase the likelihood of UTIs. These breeds include Schnauzer, Dalmatian, Yorkshire Terrier, Shih Tzu, and Poodle. Health Conditions That Can Trigger UTIs In some cases, urinary tract infections develop as a result of underlying health conditions. Neurological problems such as Intervertebral Disc Disease, paralysis, or trauma affecting the brain or spinal cord can interfere with normal bladder function and increase the risk of infection. Other contributing conditions include urinary incontinence and congenital abnormalities like ectopic ureters, which are more commonly seen in retrievers and Entlebucher Mountain Dog. Female dogs with hooded or recessed vulvas may also face a higher risk. In more serious cases, conditions such as bladder cancer, often reported in Scottish Terrier, or the presence of polyps may also contribute to urinary tract infections.

Gold Prices Remain On The Rise (March 11), Check 22K & 24K Rates Per Gram In Cities

24K & 22K Gold Price Today: Gold prices moved higher on Wednesday even as volatility persisted in global bullion markets amid mixed developments related to the ongoing tensions in West Asia. On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold futures for April delivery were trading at Rs 1,62,450 per 10 grams, after witnessing fluctuations during the session. The contract had earlier slipped by Rs 853, or 0.52 per cent, reflecting cautious investor sentiment as geopolitical signals remained unclear. Analysts said bullion markets continued to see choppy trading as investors assessed developments surrounding the conflict involving the US, Israel and Iran. Manav Modi, Commodities Analyst at Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd, said the uncertain developments surrounding the conflict have kept traders cautious. “The evolving geopolitical situation continues to cloud the outlook for Washington's monetary policy, particularly expectations for potential interest rate cuts,” he said. Investor positioning also reflected caution, with holdings in gold-backed exchange traded funds (ETFs) witnessing a sharp decline. Total holdings dropped by nearly 30 tonnes last week, marking the largest weekly outflow in more than two years. Despite these outflows, bullion remained supported by safe-haven demand as markets evaluated potential disruptions to global energy supplies and the possibility of a diplomatic resolution to the conflict, Modi added. According to analysts, mixed signals around the conflict have resulted in volatile trading conditions. While US President Donald Trump had earlier indicated the possibility of an early end to the conflict, continued strikes between the US, Israel and Iran by early Wednesday suggested that de-escalation may not be imminent, extending the hostilities into their 12th day. Traders noted that Gold Rates in India  climbed, with Gold prices in Delhi and other key metros reflecting the latest jump. Gold Rates Across Major Cities In India On March 11 Gold Prices in Delhi Today (Per 1 Gram) 24 Karat - 16,346 22 Karat- 14,985 18 Karat- 12,263 Gold Prices in Chennai Today (Per 1 Gram)  24 Karat - 16,495 22 Karat- 15,120 18 Karat- 12,950 Gold Prices in Bengaluru Today (Per 1 Gram) 24 Karat - 16,331 22 Karat- 14,970 18 Karat- 12,248 Gold Prices in Mumbai Today (Per 1 Gram) 24 Karat - 16,331 22 Karat- 14,970 18 Karat- 12,248 Gold Prices in Pune Today (Per 1 Gram) 24 Karat - 16,331 22 Karat- 14,970 18 Karat- 12,248 Gold Prices in Kolkata Today (Per 1 Gram) 24 Karat - 16,331 22 Karat- 14,970 18 Karat- 12,248 Gold Price Today in Major Indian Cities City 24k Gold Per Gram 22k Gold Per Gram 18k Gold Per Gram Gold Rate in Hyderabad 16,331 14,970 12,248 Gold Rate in Ahmedabad 16,336 14,975 12,253 Gold Rate in Indore 16,336 14,975 12,253 Gold Rate in Lucknow 16,346 14,985 12,263 Gold Rate in Coimbatore 16,495 15,120 12,950 Gold Rate in Bhubaneswar 16,331 14,970 12,248 Gold Rate in Mysore 16,331 14,970 12,248 Gold Rate in Kanpur 16,346 14,985 12,263 Gold Rate in Salem 16,495 15,120 12,950 Gold Rate in Visakhapatnam 16,331 14,970 12,248 Gold Rate in Vijayawada 16,331 14,970 12,248 Gold Rate in Patna 16,336 14,975 12,253 To check Silver price in India today, click here.

Iran War, Oil Shock, And Rising Debt: Gita Gopinath On Why The Global Economy May Be More Fragile Than It Looks

Iran War, Oil Shock, And Rising Debt: Gita Gopinath On Why The Global Economy May Be More Fragile Than It Looks

Rising oil prices triggered by the ongoing conflict involving Iran are adding new pressure on an already fragile global economy, according to former International Monetary Fund (IMF) deputy managing director and chief economist Gita Gopinath. In an interview with Bloomberg News, Gopinath warned that governments around the world may lack the fiscal capacity to respond effectively if the geopolitical conflict evolves into a broader economic shock. Higher energy prices, she said, are already expected to weigh on global growth in 2026 while adding to inflationary pressures. Her comments come as energy markets react sharply to escalating tensions in West Asia. Crude oil prices have surged in recent days amid fears that supply routes and production facilities in West Asia could face prolonged disruption. Oil Prices Rise As War Disrupts Energy Flows Global oil markets have become increasingly volatile as the conflict involving the United States, Israel and Iran intensifies. Energy prices have surged as traders assess the risk that shipments from the region could be interrupted. West Asia remains central to the global energy system, with a significant share of the world’s crude supply passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Any disruption to shipping through the narrow maritime corridor can quickly tighten global supply and push prices higher. Recent market movements have reflected these fears. Oil prices have climbed sharply, driven by concerns about damaged infrastructure, disrupted logistics and heightened risk to maritime trade routes. Against this backdrop, Gopinath told Bloomberg News that crude prices now appear likely to average around $75 per barrel in 2026, compared with earlier expectations of about $65 per barrel. That difference of roughly 15 per cent could have meaningful implications for the global economy. Growth Risks And Rising Inflation According to Gopinath, the increase in oil prices could shave 0.1 to 0.2 percentage points off global economic growth in 2026. At the same time, the oil shock could add around 0.5 percentage point to global inflation, creating additional challenges for policymakers already grappling with elevated price pressures. The warning comes at a time when the global economy is already experiencing a slowdown. The IMF in January revised its global growth forecast slightly higher to 3.3 per cent, up from 3.1 per cent projected earlier, but the outlook remains modest by historical standards. An updated version of the IMF’s World Economic Outlook is scheduled to be released next month. Gopinath, now an economics professor at Harvard University, cautioned against assuming that the world economy can easily absorb another major shock. "I don’t think people should look at everything and say ‘Wow, this is like a phenomenally resilient world economy,’" she said in the interview. She noted that several forces currently supporting global growth, including the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence-related industries, could shift quickly if conditions deteriorate. Limited Fiscal Room For Governments One of the most significant risks highlighted by Gopinath is the limited fiscal capacity governments now have to respond to crises. "The world does not have the capacity" to deal with a major shock in the same way it did during previous crises, she said. "It has absolutely depleted policy space, compared to the start of the pandemic," she added. Public debt levels have risen sharply since the COVID-19 crisis as governments increased borrowing to support economies through the pandemic. According to a report from the Institute of International Finance (IIF), global debt reached a record $348 trillion last year, marking the fastest annual increase since the pandemic period. Developing countries alone face more than $9 trillion in refinancing needs this year, highlighting the growing strain on global financial systems as borrowing costs fluctuate. Emerging Markets Face New Stress Test Gopinath also said that emerging markets may face renewed pressure if the conflict leads to prolonged economic instability. Historically, limited fiscal capacity has been a major challenge for developing economies during global crises. These countries often struggle to increase borrowing during shocks because investors become cautious about sovereign debt risks. But rising government bond yields are now signalling investor concern even in some advanced economies. According to Gopinath, markets have begun showing wariness about increased borrowing by several Group of Seven (G7) nations, including the United Kingdom, France and Germany. For emerging markets, the Iran conflict could act as a stress test for economic recovery. She noted that capital flows into emerging economies are continuing for now, though the geopolitical shock could reduce investment, particularly in equity markets. "There is still some resilience," she said. However, she also warned that global support systems for developing economies are weakening. Shrinking Global Aid And Financial Support Gopinath pointed to declining international aid flows as another factor that could complicate the response to future economic shocks. The Trump administration’s shutdown of the US Agency for International Development (USAID) has significantly reduced American foreign assistance commitments. According to a Bloomberg analysis, US foreign aid commitments fell to $14.7 billion in the fiscal year ending September 2025, down from $31.6 billion in the same period a year earlier. At the same time, the United Nations, another key source of financial support and grants for developing countries, has warned that it could run out of funds by July, while introducing spending cuts due to overdue payments from the United States. These developments could make it harder for vulnerable economies to cope with global shocks. Monetary Policy Could Stay Tight Higher oil prices could also influence monetary policy decisions across major central banks. Gopinath said the Iran war could result in tighter monetary policies in the United States, the United Kingdom and the euro area than would otherwise have been expected. The inflationary impact of higher energy prices makes it more difficult for central banks to cut interest rates. "Even before the shock, it was a hard argument to make for the Fed to cut interest rates anytime soon," she said. "And the shock just moves it in the direction of making it less likely." Dollar Strength Remains Intact Despite geopolitical tensions, the role of the US dollar in global financial markets remains largely unchanged. Gopinath said the currency’s behaviour during the conflict has followed traditional patterns seen during periods of global uncertainty. "None of that financial decision making has shifted in any way that’s causing anybody to question the dollar dominance," she said.

Sheetla Ashtami 2026 Today: Check Out The Puja Muhurat, Significance And All About Worshipping Goddess Sheetla

In Hindu culture, festivals are not just celebrations, they are deeply rooted spiritual observances that carry generations of faith, symbolism, and tradition. One such sacred occasion is Sheetla Ashtami, a festival dedicated to Goddess Sheetla, who is revered as a divine protector against diseases and infections. Observed on the Ashtami tithi of Krishna Paksha in the month of Chaitra, Sheetla Ashtami arrives eight days after the festival of Holi. The day is also widely known as Basoda, reflecting one of its most distinctive rituals, offering food prepared the previous day to the goddess. Devotees across many regions mark the day with prayers, fasting, and special offerings, seeking blessings for good health, family harmony, and protection from illness.

Know Here Sheetla Ashtami 2026: Date And Puja Muhurat In 2026, Sheetla Ashtami will be observed on Wednesday, March 11. On this day, devotees wake early to perform traditional rituals and offer prayers to Goddess Sheetla. Here are the important timings for the festival: Sheetla Ashtami Date: Wednesday, March 11, 2026 Puja Muhurat: 06:36 AM to 06:27 PM Total Duration: 11 hours 51 minutes Devotees can perform the Sheetla Mata puja anytime between 6:36 AM and 6:27 PM, which is considered the auspicious window for worship this year. During the rituals, devotees typically offer sweet rice made with jaggery or sugarcane juice, along with other traditional dishes prepared with devotion. Significance Of Sheetla Ashtami Sheetla Ashtami holds profound religious and cultural significance in Hindu tradition. Goddess Sheetla is widely worshipped as a symbol of healing and protection from diseases, particularly seasonal illnesses and infections. For centuries, communities have prayed to the goddess seeking protection from epidemics and health-related hardships. The festival also serves as a reminder of the importance of cleanliness, hygiene, and maintaining good health within the household. Many devotees observe fasts and perform rituals with deep faith, believing that worshipping the goddess on this day helps bring peace, prosperity, and well-being to the family. Why Stale Food Is Offered On Sheetla Ashtami One of the most fascinating aspects of Sheetla Ashtami is the tradition of offering stale or previously cooked food to the goddess. This custom is the reason the festival is popularly known as Basoda. According to tradition, devotees prepare meals on the night of Saptami, the day before Ashtami. The food is then kept overnight and offered to Goddess Sheetla the next morning as part of the worship. After the rituals, the same food is distributed and eaten by family members as prasad. The practice is considered a symbol of devotion, discipline, and faith, reflecting the belief that offerings made with sincerity are accepted by the goddess and bring blessings to the household.

Inside Miss Universe 2025 Fatima Bosch’s Bag: The 'Cute' Jesus Figurine She Never Travels Without

Inside Miss Universe 2025 Fatima Bosch’s Bag: The 'Cute' Jesus Figurine She Never Travels Without

The life of Miss Universe 2025 Fatima Bosch may appear glamorous from the outside, runways, international travel, and constant public attention. But behind the crown, the Mexican beauty queen relies on a handful of personal items that keep her balanced and inspired wherever she goes. From meaningful spiritual symbols to tools that fuel her creativity, the contents of her everyday bag reveal a much more intimate side of her life. In a candid "What’s in My Bag" video shared by the Miss Universe organisation on Instagram on March 11, Bosch opened her tote and revealed a collection of items that reflect more than just glamour.  Bosch, who won the Miss Universe 2025 crown on November 21, 2025, has since been travelling extensively as part of her role. Yet, as the video shows, the items she carries daily help her stay centered amid the whirlwind.           View this post on Instagram                       A post shared by Miss Universe (@missuniverse) A Small Token Of Faith That Travels Everywhere One of the most meaningful moments in the video came when Bosch reached into her bag and pulled out a small figurine of Jesus Christ. Holding it gently, she explained that the token was gifted to her by a friend during the Miss Universe 2025 pageant in Thailand. "I carry with me this little Jesus Christ that Lena gave to me in Thailand, and it’s really cute. I always bring it with me," she said. The figurine is more than a keepsake. For Bosch, it represents a daily reminder of faith and comfort while navigating the pressures and responsibilities that come with wearing the Miss Universe crown. Inspirational Cards That Guide Her Mindset Faith, it seems, plays a central role in Bosch’s routine. Alongside the figurine, she revealed a jar filled with "magic art" cards, each printed with inspirational quotes. Choosing a pink card to match her mood, she read a verse from the Bible’s Book of Colossians: "And let the peace of Christ rule in our hearts… and be thankful." The ritual, she suggested, helps set a positive tone for her day, something especially valuable during a demanding international schedule. A Creative Kit For A Busy Life While many might expect a beauty queen’s bag to be filled with makeup products, Bosch’s tote looked more like a portable creative studio. Among the items she pulled out were: A book and poetry journal where she writes down thoughts and sketches ideas A digital camera she uses to capture "people, nature, and situations" Pink markers for notes and creative work Headphones for listening to classical piano music during quiet moments For Bosch, these tools serve as a way to slow down and process the world around her, even during the busiest days of travel and appearances. The Unexpected Pageant Essential Of course, life as Miss Universe also demands a constant level of presentation, and Bosch revealed one practical item she never travels without. Inside her bag was a tiny portable iron. It may seem unusual, but Bosch says it’s essential for staying prepared. "As Miss Universe, you need to be always ready. For any fashion emergency, your clothes need to be perfect," she explained. In a world of photos, events, and spontaneous appearances, that small gadget ensures she’s always camera-ready. A Heartfelt Moment About Animals The video ended on an emotional note when Bosch revealed the final item in her bag: a small dog belonging to someone named Bina. Holding the pet affectionately, she spoke about her love for animals and shared that she had lost her own pet three months ago. "Animals are the cutest thing in the world," she said. Using the moment to highlight animal care, Bosch added a simple message for pet owners: "If you have an animal, give love to them."
