Many expert believe that by teaching children to savour their food could help overcome cancer. Actually the faster children eat will be the fatter they are. This fact are according to a study of British Youngsters.
To avoid this from happen something as simple as teaching children to eat slowly could have a huge impact on public health.The researchers videoed more than 120 sets of twins between ten and 12 as they ate sandwiches and fruit salad.
They worked out how many bites a minute the children took and compared this with their weight.Fastest eaters were the overweight children, at 4.3 bites a minute. Next came those on the heavy side of normal with 4.1 bites a minute and for thinnest youngsters, they took only 3.8 bites a minute base on the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reports.
The study by Cancer Research UK’s health behaviour research centre lead by Professor Jane Wardle also suggested that genes influence our eating rates more than upbringing. ‘We are all different and the more we understand about our funny little propensities the better.’ tell Professor Jane Wardle.
