  • Bad Eating Habits May Lead to Obesity
  • Although obesity is caused by a lot of factors, but the dietary factor, especially the poor eating habits, is the main reason for obesity. These bad eating habits mainly include:

    First, eating too fast
    Most of the obese people tend to have a good appetite and eat food very quickly. In such a case, the food is always swallowed without being fully chewed, so it can not change into chyme and stick on the stomach wall. As a result, after eating a lot of foods, those people still feel very hungry and want to eat much more. In addition, as eating too fast will elevate the level of blood glucose, so before the brain sends out the signal to stop eating, people have already eaten too much food.

    Second, eating snacks continuously
    For some fat people, especially children and young obese women, they seem to eat small amount of foods at the main meal, but they eat snack continuously, which will cause the total calories accumulated in the body greatly exceed the normal standard.

    Third, without eating breakfast
    Many women want to achieve the purpose of weight loss by eating less or without eating any breakfast. However, the result is always the opposite to what they wish. Because if you do not eat any breakfast, it will increase the hungry feeling at lunch, so it will promote the absorption of food. Therefore, the foods at lunch will soon be absorbed and changed into fat, thus will lead to obesity as time passes.

    Fourth, inappropriate dinner
    Because of the time limitation, many people tend to pay little attention to breakfast and lunch, but always eat a lot of rich foods at supper, with chicken, fish, meat, eggs, and vegetables filled on the table. However, such an arrangement is not scientific. When the sugar is digested in human body, some part will enter into the blood and form blood sugar, while the insulin can make the blood sugar change into fat and accumulate on the blood vessel wall and abdominal wall. As time passes, it will make people become fat.

    Fifth, eating too much sugar
    Sugar is not only easy to be absorbed, but also can enhance the activity of the enzyme needed for the formation of fat. What's more, it can also stimulate the secretion of insulin, which has the effect of promoting the synthesis of fat, thus leading to the accumulation of fat in the body.
