The ultimate way to lose weight: The most important thing is to eat the right amount of food

In Taiwan, it is no exaggeration to say that weight loss is a national movement. In order to have a "slim and fit" body, many women have their own "unique" weight loss methods, from daily diet and exercise control to spending a lot of money on liposuction and body shaping. But is it necessary to go through such a painful process? A group of researchers from the University of California, San Diego, discovered the truth from experiments on mice that "it is better to eat smartly than to eat less." In other words, eating regular meals three times a day is the best way to take into account both body shape and health.

The American health website "Health 24" quoted a paper published in "Cell Metabolism" on the 18th, pointing out that when it comes to the old topic of "weight loss", most people always focus on "what to eat", but ignore that "when to eat" is a big question. Biologists at the University of California, USA, conducted an experiment on dietary control on mice. When fed the same high-calorie feed, the experimental group could only eat for 8 hours a day, while the control group had no such limit. After the experiment, the researchers found that the mice with "fixed food and fixed quantity" had better weight control, better liver function, higher blood sugar tolerance, and were less prone to inflammation.

Satchidananda Panda, who wrote the study, said that each organ has a fixed "biological clock" and its activity also shows active and dormant periods. This metabolic cycle is very important for "converting cholesterol into blood sugar." If you eat all day long or always eat at the wrong time, the metabolic system will be messed up. Food cannot be smoothly converted into the nutrients or calories needed by the body, but instead becomes fat and accumulates in specific parts.

In the past, many people adopted unhealthy methods to lose weight, which were ineffective and harmful to the body. Now this study tells all women who love beauty that the three meals must be eaten at fixed times. Afternoon tea, desserts and midnight snacks are taboos. With moderate exercise, you can easily say goodbye to the "bubble belly".
