Is there any scientific evidence or reason that you gain weight by eating late?

I almost exclusively eat late, ranging anywhere from 9pm to 11pm. I just need to be relaxed and have time to enjoy eating. When my kids are awake I have to be alert and take care of them,so I don't eat just a few bites with them and prepare dinner after they are asleep. People who know about of this habit tend to state that it's not healthy as you gain weight and sleep bad. Now I'm interested, is this just a myth or are there any studies or explanations supporting this?

How are the Columbian Hippos (Escobar's Hippos) not horribly inbred if they started from a population of 4?

As per title, even if hippos don't suffer from inbreeding to the same extent, surely over so many generations it has to have some effect? Estimates put the population at around 100 with potential to grow higher.

If you clone an animal is there a biological method to differentiate the clone from the original?

For example, Dolly the sheep. Other than age is there any biological way to identify the clone from the original?

How much do hormones affect how our bodies 'turn out' as adults?

Posted: 04 Jun 2022 06:22 AM PDT

So from my very basic understanding, I understand that there are certain hormones that affect certain parts of the human body. Like oestrogen influences growth of breast tissue for example and there is this other hormone that affects growth and there are many other hormones that affect all kinds of stuff. Correct?

So that has me wondering, if you had this very unethical experiment where you could inject babies with some hormone cocktails, how much could you control by just controlling their hormones.

For example: Would you have enough control to have a baby turn into 6ft tall adult, with wide hips a big butt, large boobs and a 10 inch penis? Or how much of that would be coded into the DNA?

Is there any scientific substantiation that alcohol does/doesn’t combat snake venom?

Posted: 04 Jun 2022 05:02 AM PDT

My friend believes drinking alcohol fights snake venom when you're bitten - I believe it can increase circulation and put you more at risk. However, she's not happy with MayoClinic as a source. So are there any better sources I could link her, or am I wrong to begin with?

What are some ways to increase blood pressure and how/why do they work?

Posted: 04 Jun 2022 01:54 AM PDT

Let's say someone has chronically low blood pressure or bouts of low blood pressure. What are some of the obvious and less obvious ways to increase blood pressure?
And why do some people have low blood pressure?
