While the majority of the world's population, frankly, is starving, in another part of the world, obese residents have been noticed.. Scientists are interested in this phenomenon.

They found that a person overeats for a reason. He eats certain foods even when he's not hungry, according to Pannochka, an online publication for girls and women aged 14 to 35.. net This conclusion was made by scientists working at Yale University. Experts believe that the human brain may require a certain combination of fats and carbohydrates.. These foods are required for its effective functioning, and the issue of overeating is not taken into account..

The scientists reported their study covered the processing of data on 206 adults. They were shown pictures of snacks that basically contained sugar and combinations of fats with carbohydrates..

The question was to determine how many calories Americans think these foods are and how much they are willing to pay for them..



As it turned out, foods containing fat and carbohydrates are able to turn on neural circuits in the brain area responsible for rewards.. Participants of the experiment demonstrated that they are willing to pay more for them and always. Simple - more and always.

Scientists believe this is due to the fact that the ancestors consumed natural food sources.. Back then there were no snacks that produced a combination of carbohydrates and fats.. The human brain, apparently, has not yet had time to cope with the " Pizzas, hamburgers and donuts appeared not so long ago.
