The saying of not eating after noon is believed to be often heard in modern life, especially those who are losing weight, and are likely to have tried it. There have been many claims that insisting on not eating after noon can lose weight, and there are many people who lose weight blindly try it, and the final result is also different. Therefore, there is also controversy over the claim of not eating after noon.
There are also many studies on not eating after noon. Some studies show that not eating after noon can prolong life, and the effect is not bad. Others say that after not eating after noon, they have tasted the benefits and can be long-term. When I got down, my body also suffered some damage. Regarding different remarks, some people who don’t know the truth don’t know which one to believe? I don’t know if not eating after lunch is a good thing or a bad thing?
No, another new study has concluded that this time the argument is good. After the study, it was concluded that insisting on not eating after noon is more conducive to metabolic health, reducing fasting blood sugar and changing insulin. It has a certain effect on the level of resistance, and it also has some effects in weight loss.
Is this study credible?
The research was published in the sub-journal Nature, which was published on February 22 this year. How does the metabolic capacity of the human body change? After a long-term observation of volunteers, it was found that the experimental group taking morning meal helped improve fasting blood sugar, and improved fasting blood sugar. strong>Losing weight can also be beneficial, and it can also change insulin sensitivity, so it can be a good help in glycemic control.
The so-called morning meal refers to eating in the morning and skipping dinner, while the study said not eating after noon refers to limited time during the day Diet, in simple terms, means that there are only 8 hours of food in a day, and 16 hours of no food, 8 hours of food, in the experiment A group study was also conducted.
There are 90 volunteers in the morning eating group, evening eating group, and control group. After a period of investigation, it is found that the morning eating group More beneficial to metabolic health, a little more than the other two groups. The morning eating group started from 6am and ended at 3pm, which was the time they ate and didn’t eat the rest of the time. Evening meal group, from 11:00 to 8:00 pm, can eat during this time. The control group ate normally.
Finally, it was discovered that this way of not eating after noon has a certain effect on improving human metabolism, and this time-limited diet is a relatively healthy way of not eating after noon. As for whether you choose to eat in the morning or in the evening, it depends on your own wishes. Of the two, it is naturally better to eat in the morning.
Of course, this way of not eating after noon does not mean that everyone can do it, but there are still limitations. Hypoglycemia, pregnant women, malnutrition, people who are too young or too old, and people with mental illnesses. people.
Whether the research is credible, it can only be said that the data base of the research is not large enough for the time being, or there is a lack of a large amount of scientific basis. Moreover, the research itself is to understand the benefits of this light fasting method for improving metabolism, If you are only for weight loss or other purposes, I advise you not to blindly do it. The real skipping lunch is for health, not to achieve a certain purpose on the basis of damage to the body. Deliberately starve and control your diet.
If you want to skip lunch reasonably and correctly, you need to meet a condition
Just go to bed early.
It can be learned that whether it is the morning eating method or the evening eating method, there is no eating for a long time. During this process, there are not too many requirements for diet. However, there is a requirement for sleep, and you must ensure adequate sleep, which will be more beneficial to your health. If you cannot guarantee a good sleep every day during the noon fasting period, you have the habit of staying up late, or other Behavior may have adverse effects on the body. If so, it is not equivalent to wasting effort.
It is recommended to develop a regular daily routine, such as early to bed and early to rise, don’t have the habit of staying up late and want to change You can adjust your own work and rest in some ways. Before going to bed, you should remove some interfering factors, such as mobile phones, environment, and emotions. These factors will affect sleep.
There is a question that needs to be answered: will this way of not eating after noon hurt the stomach?
From the 5-week observational analysis, no related gastrointestinal problems were found after the volunteers skipped lunch. For such an answer, some people may say that 5 weeks of observation time is too short. Many people who had skipped lunch before had gastrointestinal damage that took many years to develop.
For such questions, really should be taken into account, after all, the observation time of this study is indeed relatively Limited, after 16 hours of not eating, the stomach acid will continue to secrete, if the stomach is in an empty state, it may cause damage. However, it also needs to be explained that this kind of non-eating after noon is definitely not restricting food. Intake, but to control the diet for a limited time. During the time when you can eat, you need to ensure the source of calories and nutrients. In the normal metabolism of the human body, the damage to the stomach may not be as great as you think.
For this study conducted by the research team of Peking Union Medical College Hospital, I have a new understanding of not eating after noon. As for whether it can bring benefits, this also varies from person to person. If it is not suitable for it, do it forcibly It may cause damage, and it still needs to be treated rationally.
