Can Midnight Snack Have Any Effect On The Blood Levels?

I routinely have a midnight snack of a whole can of peaches and two large tablespoons of small curd cottage cheese all mixed together. Is this going to negatively affect my cardiac or blood levels? I m 75 and work out four days a week at a gym. Thanks. YYYY@YYYY
