Some say that they are better off with having their last meal 3-4 hours before bedtime, others say that this is too early, and that the long period of time without food really riles up their heartburn the next morning. I am curious if weight has to do anything with it.

Are people who are overweight (also, those who the Acid Reflux theory mostly applies too) benefitting from the last meal 3-4 hours before bedtime, (because they have a slower metabolism and the stomach acid has to work a longer time for digestion)?

Are the people who are thinner not benefitting from having a meal 3-4 hours before bedtime, and would they do better with a meal 1 hour or half an hour before bedtime (because their acid works so fast due to their fast metabolism)?

Which one are you?

A.) Are you considered overweight?

B.) Do you benefit from having your final meal 3-4 hours before you go to sleep?

This is all thoughts off the type of my head and I'm just theorizing, so don't take me as any kind of source. I'm just trying to draw from your experiences to try to build my own theory.
