AI simplified
Abstract
Changes in eating habits were reported by 58% of participants during the first COVID-19 lockdown.
- Mealtime distribution and meal content shifted for many individuals during the lockdown.
- An evening chronotype and poor sleep quality are associated with a higher likelihood of altered eating habits.
- Delays in meal timing may occur in individuals who identify as evening chronotypes.
- Breakfast timing could serve as an effective indicator of chronotype in a population.
- The findings suggest that monitoring meal timing may assist in identifying vulnerable groups during stressful periods.
