"Sorry, who told these salty chickens to be so delicious that they couldn't stop." Xiao He looked like I was also a victim.
"I think I'll find a way to remind you to have some sessions in the future."
"Yes, why don't you find Peng Yuyan to have a meal with me. With him beside me, I will definitely be very regular" Xiaohehe closed his eyes and fantasized.
"I'm eating a stomachache, but I think you're eating a brain." Yifang rolled her eyes.
Diet is an indispensable part of people's lives. Everyone likes to have a healthy body and eat healthier, but healthy foods are often not that delicious. People always seek delicious food, but most of them add many unhealthy ingredients. However, at present, people with such color, fragrance and taste are attractive. Most people have already considered health and lost their health. If there is a way to reduce the deliciousness of unhealthy foods, can you eat less?
Of course, it is impossible for us to find male gods and goddesses to accompany us to eat. However, psychologists have come up with a method. If people are allowed to eat on the lens, they can see how they eat, will there be a reminder effect?
Experience 1: The impact on the taste of lenses on the foodFrom Ata Jami, a psychologist from the University of Florida, Central, wanted to know, if you can improve your self-consciousness when eating high-hot foods, can you reduce your intake?
He asked 185 college students to participate in the experiment, first let everyone choose healthy food (fruit salad) or unhealthy food (chocolate cake). After the selection, they will be taken into a room and arranged half of the people to sit in front of the lens, while the remaining half will sit in front of the lens.
Jami also deliberately added the element of music during design experiments as a factor that incorrectly transforms food evaluation. He deliberately plays light music when they eat, and only informs half of the participants, and the music will affect their emotions. The experiments are divided into 8 situations, see the following table:
After eating, all participants must fill out the food delicious evaluation form.
results show that without informing the music information (groups 5-8), those who eat "unhealthy food" who "face the lens" and eat "unhealthy food" are less delicious than those who eat "unhealthy food" who eat "unhealthy food"; participants who eat "healthy food" do not have much difference in their evaluation of the deliciousness of the food, whether they sit in front of the lens or carry the lens on their backs.
However, in the case of receiving music information (groups 1-4), their evaluation of the deliciousness of the food is very different, regardless of where they sit or what type of food they eat.
Sitting in different positions to eat "unhealthy food" will affect the degree of deliciousness, which may be because sitting in front of the lens will see the way you eat, which strengthens your self-consciousness and leads to a gap in the current behavior (eating unhealthy food) and the public standard (eating healthy food), which will make people feel uncomfortable.
To avoid this feeling, people will feel uncomfortable due to other factors (foods), rather than because their behavior does not match the public standards. For healthy foods, because they have already done behaviors that meet the standards of the public, they will not change their deliciousness.
The groups that were told that music would affect mood, regardless of where they sat, eating "unhealthy food" did not affect the assessment of deliciousness, because they had been suggested that some of the feelings were from music, and therefore also made eating in front of the lens uncomfortable because of music rather than food.
In addition to eating in front of the lens, it can help us less bewitched by delicious food, is there any other way to help us control our appetite?
Experience 2: The impact of environmental sound on food intakeResearch by Brigham Young University and Colorado State University in the United States pointed out that the sound of people eating affects the amount of food intake. Before one of the experiments, 71 college students were asked to evaluate various aspects of the situation, mainly to measure the fat index.
Participants are randomly divided into two groups, one plays noisy environmental sounds to cover the sound of chewing food; the other group highlights the chewing sounds with a peaceful environment. Then ask them to eat at least one piece of dried puff, but there is no upper limit, so they can eat as much as they like.
The results found that people in the noisy environment group ate 4 pieces of baking, and the static environment group ate 2.75 pieces of baking. It seems that when people eat in a noisy environment, their appetite will be higher than in a peaceful environment.
It may be because in a tranquil environment, it is easier to notice the sounds made when chewing food, thereby reducing your appetite. Although the difference seems to be small, long-term cumulative effects will also have a great impact. Generally, we ignore the impact of chewing sound on eating. If we can start from this aspect, it can also help us avoid excessive consumption of unhealthy food..
Psychology advice youMost people are difficult to confront food and understand the importance of physical health. Sometimes, if you want to learn the session, you really need some tricks!
The advice given to you is that if you want to control yourself and reduce the amount of unhealthy food, you might as well put some lenses in your home store to reduce the deliciousness of unhealthy foods, so that you can eat less.
In addition, when eating, choose a peaceful and noisy environment, such as avoiding TV or music. When we can hear our chewing sounds, it is easier to understand what we are eating, and it will appear similar to eating glasses, reduce the amount of unhealthy foods to keep our health in mind!
