Typically by eating a balanced meal or by mixing in certain food items the insulin response can be changed.
An example late night meal of
8 ounces of chicken breast
1 cup of broccoli
1 teaspoon of flax oil
2 cups of cooked pasta
8 ounces of milk
The mixture of fat, fiberous carbs and protein will impact insulin release.
Most of us do not need a "carb heavy" meal before bedtime, but most of us also do not need to be fearful of eating a typical balanced meal before bedtime either.
Another factor is recovery and that typically happens during certain sleep zones. So one thing to consider if you go to bed with hunger pains how deeply will you sleep and will that interfere with recovery?
There are a lot of "what ifs" to this discussion.
