I used to think about how to eat enough, but now I think about a healthy diet. The frequency of various problems has become higher, which has to attract people's attention. In the process of keeping in good health, there is a saying.
Maintaining a moderate hunger is more conducive to good health. What do you think of this statement? Do you think it is credible? Whether it makes sense or not, let's have a good discussion.
Why is it healthy to keep a moderate hunger?
From the ancient Taoist thoughts, we can have some experiences, such as Sun Simiao, a well-known Taoist and health expert.
His diet thought is to eat less and eat more. In his works, he mentioned: "People who are good at nourishing nature eat first when they are hungry and drink first when they are thirsty." If you don't want to eat more, it's hard to disappear. I often want to be hungry. "
You should feel hungry and thirsty before eating or drinking water. If you don't feel hungry and thirsty, you will always eat and drink. It is difficult to feel full, which will burden the stomach and make food difficult to digest. It is also a kind of harm to the stomach.
It can be seen that moderate hunger will help to regulate gastrointestinal function, so as to avoid overeating, which will bring a burden to the stomach and have a bad impact on health.
Let's talk about modern science. Moderate starvation will increase basal metabolic rate. It is to maintain the basic activities of the body and keep the balance of calorie consumption. It can also reduce fat accumulation, so it is not easy to have obesity problems.
In fact, it can be seen from the Japanese eating habits that they eat less every meal, but there are many kinds of diets, and every meal is the same. As long as you ensure that you are seven or eight points full, you won't feel too full or hungry.
This will not increase the burden on the stomach, but also allow the body to absorb nutrients. The body's immunity and metabolic ability are maintained at a normal level, which protects health well. It is understandable that the Japanese can become the longest-lived country.
Moderate hunger can also make people clear-headed and concentrate on their work or study. Many people in modern times can't resist the temptation of delicious food.
I can't help eating more when I see something delicious, regardless of whether my stomach can stand it. When enjoying delicious food, you can't receive the information transmitted by your brain in time, and it's easy to overeat.
Eating too much will affect the blood supply to the brain. Food enters the body and needs to be digested by the digestive system. When a large amount of food flows in, it needs more blood.
The more blood in the digestive system, the less blood the brain needs. Without adequate blood supply, the brain will suffer from ischemia and hypoxia, and the spirit will become worse. People get tired easily, and their attention is not easy to concentrate and their consciousness is not clear.
If you are moderately hungry and don't eat enough, the blood supply to your brain will be normal, and your mind will stay awake and you can concentrate on things. Moreover, moderate hunger will make the brain secrete some substances, make neurons grow rapidly and keep the brain awake.
To sum up, moderate hunger can indeed bring some benefits to the body, but many people are still not sure about moderation, which is easy to bring bad effects to the body.
This scale really needs to be understood clearly. It does not mean complete fasting, nor does it mean eating less than one meal, but controlling the diet. Just eat seven or eight minutes full.
You can't keep your stomach empty all the time. In the long run, it will also damage your stomach. The fast food advocated by the west, or the five-two fast food method, is the same as the concept of moderate hunger, so we might as well follow suit. But it must be suitable for your own situation. If you feel uncomfortable, you must stop at once. What suits us is the best.
