This seems like the beginning of one of those typical “clickbait” headlines that circulate on social media to pique people’s interest and push them to click a link or leave a comment.

In reality, from a medical and nutritional standpoint, eating eggs at night or for dinner has no hidden or dangerous contraindications. On the contrary, eggs are an excellent choice for the last meal of the day for several reasons:

Satiety and weight control: They are rich in high-quality protein and healthy fats, which helps you feel full for longer and avoid nighttime hunger pangs.
Sleep quality: Eggs contain tryptophan, an essential amino acid that the body uses to produce serotonin and melatonin, the hormones that regulate sleep and relaxation.

Ease of digestion: When cooked lightly (soft-boiled, poached, or hard-boiled, avoiding high-fat fried foods), eggs are digested relatively quickly compared to other protein sources like red meat.
The only caveat is for those who suffer from acid reflux or have particularly slow digestion: in these cases, it’s always best to avoid large or fatty meals (such as eggs fried in butter) immediately before bed.

In short, there’s no alarming medical mystery behind eating eggs in the evening!
