2. Eating less and eating late is good for losing weight. Experiments show that eating food with proper calories once every morning has little effect on weight, while eating the same food at night will obviously increase weight. The reason is that the vagal nerve excitability is higher at night than during the day, which promotes the secretion of insulin in large quantities, and the excess heat synthesizes fat in large quantities under the action of insulin, thus making people obese.
Eating less at dinner can prevent arteriosclerosis.
Eating less at dinner can reduce the occurrence of diseases such as arteriosclerosis. There is a simple reason. After falling asleep, the blood flow slows down, and a large amount of blood lipids are easily deposited on the blood vessel wall, causing arteriosclerosis; It can also stimulate the liver to produce low-density and very low-density lipoproteins, which can promote the accumulation of cholesterol on the arterial wall. Over time, it will induce arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
In addition, eating less at dinner can also help prevent cancer, tumor and sudden death at night.
All these are enough to show that when and how much to eat dinner is more important than what to eat. The folk say that "you can live to ninety-nine without a bite of rice", which makes sense. How much to eat for dinner depends on everyone's physical condition and personal needs, with self-feeling not hungry as the degree. The best state is to eat half full, which is the secret of health and longevity.
