时常保持两分饥饿 寿命最多可增长30%

Why do we eat so much?

One reason is buffet lunches – they need no explanation. Business dinners that last for hours also encourage people to eat too much. Dinner parties with friends are also culprits, as being in a good mood gives you an appetite. Eating too quickly because you are busy can also be a problem. It takes 20 minutes for the brain to receive a warning of overeating, so wolfing lunch in 10 minutes is not a good idea. Finally, skipping meals due to work pressure can lead to binge-eating in the evening.

What wrong about overeating?

"Taking in half the food that your stomach can contain is enough for you to survive. Eating too much places a burden on your organs and causes many health problems," heath education expert Hong Shaoguang said.
