  Reasonable Diet Control

  

  In autumn, people's appetite increases, and excess calories will be converted into fat, causing weight gain. Therefore, moderate dieting can control weight and prevent weight gain. Pay attention to the following points when eating, which can satisfy your appetite without increasing the amount of food:

  

  Drink soup or porridge before meals. As the saying goes, "Drink soup before meals, no need to look for medicine." Soup can suppress appetite and increase satiety. After drinking soup, the amount of food consumed will decrease. Do not overeat, stop eating when you are "80% full". Eat less or no snacks. Reasonable diet control not only prevents weight gain, but also reduces the burden on the stomach and prevents the occurrence of many diseases.

  

  Chew slowly and swallow slowly. Chewing slowly and swallowing slowly allows the food to be fully chewed in the mouth and mixed thoroughly with saliva, forming small food particles. Saliva contains substances that help with weight loss. In addition, the amount of food consumed that produces a feeling of fullness is less when chewing slowly compared to when eating quickly. According to a study in the British Medical Journal, people who eat quickly and feel full have three times the risk of obesity compared to those who chew slowly and stop eating before feeling full. The ancient Chinese medical book "Yi Shuo" says, "Do not eat in a hurry, eating in a hurry harms the spleen. The method is to chew well and make it small."

  

  Eat less for dinner. The body rests at night, and the activity of the digestive organs such as the stomach and intestines decreases. If you eat too much or too late for dinner, it will not only increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, but also easily convert calories into fat and store them in the body, leading to obesity. Therefore, dinner should be light, avoid eating foods that are difficult to digest, and never eat supper.

  

  Exercise Appropriately

  

  Exercise can burn fat and eliminate excess weight. The simplest method is to take a walk for half an hour after meals. At this time, the energy consumed by the body comes from fat, which effectively reduces the accumulation of fat in the body and achieves weight loss.

  

  By developing good habits in terms of "eating" and "exercise", not only can you lose weight and stay healthy, but you can also increase your lifespan. Unconsciously, your body shape will tend to be moderate. Autumn has already begun, and the "obesity switch" is in your hands. If you need to lose weight, don't miss this opportunity.
