| Stop eating when you are 80 percent full and you could live up to 30 percent longer, a study by Australian scientists has found, Life Times reports. Overeating by the young may even damage the health of the next generation. And the negative impact of short-term overeating could last for years, not to mention adding unsightly fat. |
據(jù)《生命時(shí)報(bào)》報(bào)道，澳大利亞科學(xué)家一項(xiàng)研究表明：如果人類時(shí)常保持兩分饑餓，其壽命可最多增長30%。報(bào)道說，在年輕時(shí)經(jīng)常吃撐，危害甚至?xí)绊憙纱说慕】?。哪怕是短期暴飲暴食，不僅體重會(huì)上升，對(duì)全身的傷害也會(huì)持續(xù)多年。 |
| Why do we eat so much? |
為什么會(huì)吃多？ |
| One reason is buffet lunches -- they need no explanation. Business dinners that last for hours also encourage people to eat too much. Dinner parties with friends are also culprits, as being in a good mood gives you an appetite. Eating too quickly because you are busy can also be a problem. It takes 20 minutes for the brain to receive a warning of overeating, so wolfing lunch in 10 minutes is not a good idea. Finally, skipping meals due to work pressure can lead to binge-eating in the evening. |
第一是自助餐，這無需多言。第二是商務(wù)宴請(qǐng)，往往持續(xù)時(shí)間長，不知不覺就吃多。第三是朋友聚會(huì)，心情好容易吃多。第四是工作太忙吃得太急。從開始進(jìn)食到大腦接到飽的信號(hào)需要20分鐘，很多人通常用不了10分鐘就解決一頓飯。第五是壓力太大，飲食不規(guī)律，晚餐過于豐盛。 |

衛(wèi)生部首席健康教育專家洪昭光說：“每天攝入的食物，只需要達(dá)到胃的容量的一半，就足夠人一天所需了。否則，只會(huì)讓機(jī)體超負(fù)荷運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)，造成一系列健康問題?！?/td> |
