What does it mean to not be greedy at midnight?

"Don't be greedy for sex" means not to indulge in sexual desires, but also to watch as few movies and TV shows and articles with sexual overtones as possible. These can highly excite the central nervous system, offset drowsiness and cause insomnia. Because of poor sleep, people who get up early will not be energetic, which will also directly affect normal work during the day. If this continues for a long time, it will be very detrimental to your health.

"Don't be gluttonous at midnight", there is no difference in time between midnight and the third watch, they both belong to the same time period. With the development and progress of the times, people's nightlife has become more colorful than in the past, and eating late-night snacks has become the norm.

"Don't be gluttonous in the middle of the night" means not to eat too much after a normal dinner. Human digestive function is also limited. After dinner, the food in the stomach has not been completely digested. If you continue to eat, it will increase the burden on the liver and gallbladder, causing indigestion. If things go on like this, it will not only affect your rest, but also cause gastrointestinal diseases. Therefore, it is good for your health to eat as little or no food as possible late at night.
