“Can late night eating cause digestive disorders?”
My husband has erratic eating habits. He usually doesn't eat breakfast, then snacks throughout the day and has a large dinner typically. He always complains of stomach upset but his gastro hasn't been able to find any issues. Could it be because of his eating schedule?
