It is thought chewing for longer prevents over-eating by giving the brain more time to receive signals from the stomach that it is full. 不用再花钱请私人健身教练,不必再吞下昂贵的减肥产品,专家近日调查得出结论:咀嚼食物时间长,可以达到非常好的减肥效果。专家称,长时间的咀嚼食物可以相当程度地降低食物中的卡路里含量,数字现实,每次咀嚼食物达到40下,相对每次咀嚼食物仅仅为15下的情况,卡路里能减少12%。此外,还有一种说法,咀嚼的时间越长,留给大脑思考的时间就会越多,人们会时刻意识到:哦,差不多了,胃快要到达极限了,还是停下来吧! |
