We examined the effects of ‘intake’ or ‘timing’ for lunch and supper on digestion and the absorption of dietary carbohydrates in the following morning. The efficiency of the digestion and absorption of dietary carbohydrates in the breakfast under late suppertime conditions was higher than that under usual suppertime conditions. There were significant differences in the blood glucose level between the two conditions after having breakfast, where the mean blood glucose level under late suppertime conditions was significantly higher that under usual suppertime conditions. On the other hand, there were no significant differences of ‘intake balance’ between lunch and supper in the unabsorbed dietary carbohydrate, blood glucose level and respiratory quotient.
