When we are under pressure, especially when we are constantly pressing, we may turn to high-sugar and high-heat foods to relieve pressure. These foods, such as chocolate, potato chips and ice cream, can actually bring pleasure in a short period of time, but the negative effects that come with them may be far beyond our imagination.
Will you eat too much under pressure?A study by the Galven Medical Institute in Australia found that high sugar and high fat diets may be related to pressure-related diets. Research points out that one area in the brain, "the outer side ridge graft", is responsible for integrating the reward reaction, which may not inhibit the reward reaction of food during pressure, resulting in eating. Although the study was conducted in mice, our brains also have this area, and our dietary habits are likely to be affected by pressure, which also raises the question: Are we going to eat too much under pressure?
This tendency may be because high sugar and high fat foods cause pleasure in our brains. These foods not only allow our brains to release happy chemical substances, but may also sing our emotions and memories, especially those pleasant times, which can help us respond to pressure and negative emotions. But this short and slight sense of satisfaction is often concealed by long-term health effects.
The long-term intake of high sugar and high heat foods may have serious consequences for our bodies:
. Weight gain: These foods are often high in energy and long-term consumption may lead to weight gain and increase the risk of obesity and related diseases.
. Blood sugar fluctuations: High-sugar foods may cause blood sugar to rise rapidly and then fall rapidly, which may lead to fatigue, drowsiness and increased appetite.
. Diabetes risks: Long-term consumption of high-sugar foods may increase the risk of diabetes because excessive sugar infusion may lead to insulin resistance.
. Heart health: High sugar diets are associated with the risks of heart disease and may lead to high blood pressure and high calcification sterols.
. Bone health: Long-term injection of high-sugar and high-heat foods may lead to imbalance in the kidney bacteria and affect the health of the kidney.
. Dental problems: High-sugar foods are prone to cause tooth decay because sugar can cause bacteria to produce acid and damage teeth.
Therefore, although high sugar and high-hot foods may bring temporary pleasure in a short period of time, this dietary habit may have adverse effects on our health in the long run. When it comes to pressure, we should seek healthier ways, such as exercise, relaxing activities, and even professional psychological guidance to help us better respond to emotions.
