Re: A: Excessive hunger before bed

[Guest guest]

My first thought when reading this was parasites. I am not entirely sure

why I thought of them, but I think they are most active at night and if

so maybe they are eating up what he ate. It is unclear to me if you

have pursued this, but I thought I'd mention it.

I agree with 's idea about the cortisol; he metabolism seems to be

elevated at night.

Just a thought,

You maybe should try Lycopodium they will sometimes get up in the middle of the night to eat. Also, really need to treat dysbiosis.
