What are the benefits of moderate hunger?
Eat less and concentrate, and you will live longer. Someone has done an interesting experiment, only feeding old hens with water and anti-hunger plants. After two months of feeding, the old hen's feathers fell off and grew back, and 8 1% of the old hens laid eggs again. In fact, human beings are also the same phenomenon. Our neighbor, Japan, has the longest life expectancy and the best old-age health in the world. The average life expectancy of Japanese people is over 80 years old, and the most important factor is diet. Friends who have traveled to Japan or studied at school know that there is a difference between Japanese traditional diet and western countries, that is, less quantity and better quality, and less light food.

Moderate hunger helps to enhance immune function. The so-called immunity refers to the phagocytosis and sterilization ability of white blood cells and various immune cells in the body. The strength of this immunity depends on the number and activity of macrophages. Their number depends on people's nutritional status; The degree of activity depends on people's hunger.

This is why malnourished people are prone to get sick, because there are few macrophages in his body and his immunity is naturally low. People who eat delicacies for a long time are also prone to get sick, because although they have a lot of macrophages, they are lazy and don't work. I haven't been hungry for a long time. Once I am hungry, I have food, so macrophages are fattened, lazy, don't go to work, and my immunity is low. When people are full all day, their immune system will be reduced. On the contrary, hunger will activate the "fighting power" of macrophages, so the immunity will also be improved.

Hungry or not. Eating less and exercising more has always been the only way to lose weight successfully. On the one hand, the energy we consume every day is used for metabolism and various activities. Excess energy will be converted into fat and stored in the body, and fat will be decomposed when we are hungry.

Knowing that moderate hunger is good for health care, it is naturally the best way for overweight people to lose weight by eating less every day.
