Unhealthy eating habits to avoid

            Unhealthy eating habits to avoid  The evidence here is convincing. In a study published in the Journal of Epidemiology, eating patterns of 1083 subjects were examined. Participants were divided into 3 groups of slow, normal and fast-eating. Fast-eaters had 89% higher chance to develop metabolic syndrome than normal speed eaters and 549% higher chance than slow eaters. Similar outcomes were reported in a giant study of various lifestyle habits, which examined 59 717 Japanese people . Quite remarkably, even after adjusting for BMI and energy intake, levels of two pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1 and IL-6 were lower in people who eat slower.
