But can you really lose weight by eating more and swallowing more? In fact, this view is not completely unreasonable. Eating less and eating more meals will not only make the food fragrant, but also help digestion and absorption, and even help us lose weight. Because when we eat, the satiety transmitted by the stomach is different from the satiety information recognized by the brain. It takes time to feed a full stomach back to the human brain, but when the stomach is full, but the human brain has not received this information, it may mistakenly think that you are not full, so it will be very easy to eat and support, which is not conducive to weight loss.
In the case of every meal, every bite of food should be swallowed several times, which can help us reduce our hunger and make us eat less at every meal without having to eat. In addition, slow swallowing with narrow mouth is also beneficial to digestion and absorption. Because the longer the food waits in the mouth, the pepsin contained in saliva can help the food digest and absorb, which is conducive to promoting the digestion and absorption of nutrients. Therefore, it is beneficial to chew slowly when eating.
A bite of food must be swallowed at least 20~30 times in the mouth.
1. Eating less and eating more can make the ingredients softer and avoid damaging our digestive and absorption pipes, especially for some patients with esophageal and gastric inflammation or ulcers, and some elderly people with cirrhosis and portal hypertension.
2. Chewed food can expand the total contact area with the intestinal cavity, and digestion and absorption can also give full play to make the intestinal cavity generally digest and absorb nutrients in food.
3. Generally, the heartbeat increases by 20% when eating, and increases by 49% when eating fast; Generally, the systolic blood pressure after meals is 8% higher than that before meals, and the systolic blood pressure after fasting is 13% higher than that before meals, which shows that eating less and eating more meals can overcome the tension and reduce the pressure of conceptual work.
