We all have myth that after Sunset if we eat it is as against non violence & sin (Paap).
If Mahaveer had said in this prospective it is true b'coz in low light any type of flies or mosquitoes can fall in food which may not visible to naked eye. If this was the meaning then it doesn't have any sense today where we have powerful lights which can substitute Day Light.
We should understand it in proper way, at Sunrise Life starts & after sunset its time to rest and our body doesn't require any energy in night. As soon as we eat something and it goes below our throat entire internal body parts starts working to digest the food. In night oxygen level drops and carbon dioxide level increases, we need oxygen (Prana Vayu) to digest food.
It also have in depth meanings : you would had noticed as soon as food reaches to stomach our mind becomes dull and we feel sleeping b'coz our entire energy goes in digesting food and mind doesn't get the enough supply of required energy so we feel sleeping thats why when we are on fasting we can't sleep properly as mind gets more energy and we become sleepless.
We also intake more food & water unknowingly above facts as we think it's sunset time & we shouldn't eat in the night and eat food in hurry without chewing properly. Our stomach will more upset if we had food & water in hurry it requires at least 30 minutes gap between drinking water & having food to digest it properly.
If we had to avoid food at night we have to change our eating habits & routines. We should eat before 1 hour of Sunset so we get enough energy to digest food properly.
Psychiatrists says bad dreams & sleeplessness is due to un-digested food lying in our stomach and it disturbs our sleep. And unknowingly we takes big meals ie.dinner in night which is against our biological system.
