Brief Answer:
Better to have fasting from midnight to 10 am

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us .
Melatonin secretion happens during sleep till you wake up . So it is better to have light breakfast one hour after getting up maybe 10 am and have good lunch in the afternoon.
Eat light dinner and better stop eating at least one hour before you start sleeping .
Breakfast may be skipped too but I advice you t have some fruits at least for that.
Regards
Dr Arun
