Did your parents ever tell you not to eat so quickly? And did you pay any attention? If you didn’t, then that’s a shame, because there’s mounting evidence that eating fast increases your risk of weight gain and type 2 diabetes.The reason eating quickly leads to weight gain is that it affects the release of hunger-suppressing hormones, such as glucagon-like peptide 1 , which is a natural version of drugs such as Ozempic that are currently causing such excitement in the weight loss world.
I’m not convinced that chewing your food until it is almost liquid is necessary or desirable, but Gladstone and Fletcher were certainly onto something when it comes to the benefits of eating more slowly. Advertisement It turned out that, compared to those who admitted to gobbling down their food, the slow eaters were 42 per cent less likely to be obese. The same study also found that snacking after dinner and eating within two hours of going to sleep were also strongly linked to putting on weight.
Volunteers were asked to eat a large bowl of ice cream, amounting to 675 calories, on two different occasions. On one occasion they had to eat it in five minutes, on another, they were encouraged to dawdle, and take 30 minutes. When they ate more slowly there was a significantly bigger rise in levels of GLP-1 and PYY, another hunger-suppressing hormone.
In a famous experiment published in 2019 in the journal Cell Metabolism, volunteers were housed in a lab and spent two weeks eating homemade meals, followed by two weeks eating ultra-processed food, or vice versa. When eating UPFs they ate an average of 500 calories more a day. ......................................................................................................................................Chronic lack of sleep doesn’t just leave you feeling groggy and possibly bad-tempered: it may have a lasting impact on your memory — specifically if you have a very common sleep disorder, obstructive sleep apnoea .
Now research from Boston Medical Centre in the U.S. has shown it’s linked to memory or thinking problems. Researchers asked more than 4,000 people to fill in a questionnaire about sleep quality and brain function — the people with apnoea symptoms were 50 per cent more likely to report memory or thinking problems.
