Zoe Wolf and Jonathan Berry talk about a new area of scientific research. There is evidence that people who eat fast if they slow down the rate that they're eating improve their weight, improve other health measures. They also discuss how speed of eating can be related to the sort of foods that you're eating. Join us next week for another episode of Zoe's Healthier You podcast.
We’ve probably all been reprimanded for eating too fast at the dinner table or suffered the dreaded “itis” from eating way too much food at a family gathering. Our society and the systems we’ve developed to feed it have ballooned to such a point that they easily override our natural bodily systems that tell us when we’ve had enough to eat.
When nearly 50% of the United States population is projected to have obesity by 2030, can something as simple as changing the speed with which we eat really be an effective tool for weight loss and sustaining a healthy body?
In today’s short episode of ZOE Science & Nutrition, Jonathan and Sarah ask: What is eating rate and does it have any impact on our health?
