People say that after a long time together, their living habits will become more and more similar, but Ms. Lin doesn't think so. She feels that she will never understand some of her husband's behavior in her life. For example, he eats supper almost every night. He has already had dinner at six or seven o'clock, but he has to have another meal at eleven or two o'clock. Sometimes it is instant noodles, sometimes it is barbecue, and he eats whatever he wants.
Mr. Huang always felt that his wife Ms. Lin was a bit of a big deal. She just ate some midnight snacks. She was always criticized by her, saying that it was harmful to health. But then she looked at herself and learned from the Internet that " will not eat after noon" and sleeping hungry every day. Is this habit better? He also said that he was losing weight, but he didn't lose weight after losing half a year.
Just like that, two people are always in opposition to "eat" or "hungry" before going to bed, and neither of them accepts each other. So, from a scientific point of view, which of these two behaviors is more harmful? Is it reliable to not eat after lunch?
Eating some midnight snack before going to bed is not a shameful
In the eyes of many people, after eating midnight snack, they lie in bed. The food in their stomach is full of food, which has an impact on the stomach, gallbladder, and intestines. Moreover, they are inactive for several hours at night, and the calories they eat cannot be consumed. In the end, it is not far from obesity. But in fact, some people often eat midnight snacks, but their figure is still very thin.
This is because the food they choose has a low calories and is resistant to , such as oats, apples, walnuts, toast, chicken breasts and vegetables, etc., and they didn’t eat it until they were over. If they didn’t feel hungry, they stopped. This would cause a relatively small burden on the stomach. Then clean up the room a little, wash and read the book, and after half an hour, I won’t be so overcrowded, and there is no problem in sleeping.
Just imagine, if you eat nothing, you are obviously hungry and endure it desperately, you can't sleep at all, and you have been hungry for several hours. If you don't eat now and wait until tomorrow morning, you will be hungry for too long, which will also harm your stomach and gallbladder. Therefore, it is okay to eat less at , and you don't have to treat late-night snacks as a disaster .
However, you have to distinguish whether you are "hungry" or "greedy"
As mentioned above, it is okay to have some low-fat food when you are hungry, and there is no problem with eating and sleeping. However, if you are greedy late at night, your appetite increases, and you want to eat fried meat and sour foods with all colors, fragrance and flavors , it may be caused by night food. Simply put, it is food, sleep, and mood disorders, and you cannot control yourself well. How to solve
?
The best way is to not later than 10 o'clock . In addition, you should eat full food when you are hungry. Eat milk, biscuits and other foods to fill your stomach. Don't be hungry until late at night, as the probability of eating midnight snacks will be much smaller.
Compared to the fact that sleeping with hunger is more harmful, because eating before going to bed, what to eat and how much to eat is controllable. As long as you can control it well, then there is nothing scary about sleeping after eating midnight snacks. On the contrary, if you don’t know anything and let yourself be hungry, From night to the next day, it is easy to have problems when you are always hungry. cholecystitis, chronic gastritis, gallstones and other problems may occur.
Is it reliable to not eat after lunch?
First of all, Peking Union Medical College Hospital team once conducted a study on "not eating after lunch" and found that this method can help the human body improve metabolic problems. However, this study targets non-obese people , and many people do not eat dinner because they are too fat, which is contrary to the study.
Secondly, there is another premise, that is, go to bed early and cannot reduce the amount of food . The food you eat every day should be rich and nutritious to meet the calories needed by the body, and then go to bed early during dinner time.It is not what everyone thinks that they are trying hard to stay up late without eating at night, so that they can make themselves hungry and feel hunger for a long time is not good for their emotions.
Many people use the wrong method, thinking that they simply don’t eat supper, and end up hungry to stomach mucosa ulcers, stomachache , insufficient blood sugar utilization, and they are weak all over, and they always suffer from insomnia at night and doze off during the day.
If you plan to lightly fast , you must learn the correct method and remember two things:
① When you don’t eat dinner go to bed early, eat breakfast later, eat lunch at two or three o’clock in the afternoon, eat , eat 80% to 90% full, try to eat some high-quality carbohydrates that are hungry, such as brown rice , whole wheat bread , sweet potatoes, etc., eat less rice porridge and rotten noodles.
② If you implement "5+2" light fasting, remember that you don't eat anything. You still need to eat water, fruits, dairy products, protein, foods, but has less calories than usual . It’s hard to bear when you’re hungry, so you can drink some lotus root powder and dumpling soup .
In addition, if you are over 70 years old, thin, have tumors or mental illnesses, it is not recommended to reduce your appetite. Women should breastfeed and give birth to , do not consider light fasting for the time being.
Back to the beginning of the article, we can find that Ms. Lin’s method of not eating after lunch is actually not scientific. She just doesn’t eat dinner, but she doesn’t go to bed early. Mr. Huang eats not very healthy types of late-night snacks, and there are more oil and salt such as instant noodles and barbecue. Eating them regularly will increase waist circumference and fat, and will also affect fat and blood sugar.
In short, whether you eat or not, the key is to hope that everyone can go to bed early and solve most problems. If you are really hungry, then eat some healthy midnight snacks, which has a smaller impact on your body, which is better than sleeping hungry. However, everyone still needs to think from the bottom of the matter and make adjustments. In the final analysis, it is still a matter of living habits.
