London (AP) -You can eat and eat cakes. Do it slowly.
Experts tend to focus on the types of foods you can eat to improve your health. But the speed of swallowing dinner is very important. There is a risk of eating too quickly. Consider the potential of food and overeating that can be overeated before the brain stops. (If you inhale food, it’s annoying for someone who takes time to cook a slow restaurant or a meal.)
Here are some tips for a more careful approach to slowing and consuming scientists. diet.
How fast is it too fast?
If you can regularly polish breakfast, lunch or dinner within 20-30 minutes, eat too fast.
Cleveland Clinic’s Leslie Heinberg said, “It takes about 20 minutes to communicate with the brain through a lot of hormonal signals.” So when people eat quickly, they can miss these signals and eat beyond the point of fullness.
Why is that a problem?
Heinberg said that people who eat quickly are likely to swallow more air. If you do not chew the food correctly, digestion can be damaged. In other words, you do not get all nutrients from food. Uninnuted food sculptures can also be trapped in the esophagus.
Some previous studies suggested that people who eat quickly will take the highest risk. obesityThe slowest eating person was most likely to be obese.
How can you slow down when you eat?
First, turn off the TV and put down your phone.
Heinberg added, “While watching TV, people tend to eat or eat until the end of the show.” “When we work while we are working, we are less and less. And it often makes us eat more.”
She said she tended to eat more and eat more when people focus on eating exclusively.
Heinberg also acknowledged that the speed you eat is often a deep root habit, but the change is still possible. She did not eat it using an undesirable hand, and in general, she tried to take an instrument that is not used like chopsticks or intentionally relax to drink water when the plate is partially empty.
If you live a busy life, it may be inevitable to have lunch at work meetings or snacks while erranding. But Sarah Berry, chief scientist of Zoe, a British nutrition company, said, “If possible, it is in mind of the taste and feeling of food.”
“If we don’t exist completely, it’s very easy to eat faster and we don’t notice the amount we spent.”
Chew food as your mom said
Helen McCarthy, clinical psychologist of the British Psychological Society, is one of the simplest things to increase the number of water you take.
“If you chew each mouth a little more, the meal will slow down,” she said.
The type of food you eat can also make a difference. Minor Or fast food is usually faster because it has a softer texture.
“It’s hard to eat vegetables and protein at the same speed as it is highly processed and chewing vegetables and protein.”
Some of her patients also mentioned a woman who ate a potato chip tube every evening and reported an unintended side effect when she started eating more slowly. When McCarthy told her to slow down and to eat all the chips individually, her patient told her, “It was like a clag with a lot of chemicals.”
McCarthy said, “She no longer found a pleasant (chip).
