Consumption of low-calorie food has a positive effect on our health.
Whatever the lessons of ethics, but when there's a lot of tasty and interesting around, it's hard to resist and get out of the table with a slight feeling of hunger. The results of recent studies of scientists from the United States have shown a strong reason for each person, in order to begin to slightly restrict food.
In a recent issue of the British natural science journal Nature, a study was published that describes how nutrition affects the length of our lives, as well as the quality of life in adulthood.
According to research, consumption of low-calorie food has a positive effect on our health. Simply put, if you reduce the number of calories, your health is normalized. The authors of the article note that the results of the research are very promising, since they give the person another tool for increasing life expectancy. In this case, it is not necessary to adhere to a low-calorie diet at all times - even a few years of such nutrition can significantly improve your well-being and slow aging.
53 people for two years adhered to a limited diet. They had to consume 15% less calories than the norm. The participants of the experiment measured various biological markers, including metabolic rate.
As a result, scientists have found that even a short-term restriction of calories can positively influence the human body and slow the aging process. The researchers also noted that a similar positive effect can be achieved with the help of fasting days. However, on the other days it is necessary to consume a normal amount of calories, not over normal.
It's time to remember the old rule, which says:
"get up from the table with a slight feeling of hunger". As you know, the feeling of saturation comes in 15 minutes after eating, so it makes sense to limit your portions. If you get up from the table and feel that you are full, then you overeat. Even worse, if you have a habit of "gorging up to dump". Medicine and technology are moving forward, but wishing to live up to 100 years also need to make efforts to maintain their health.
