Does eating faster makes you fat?

Answer 1

In a way it can because it takes the brain about 20 minutes to realize that the stomach is full. If you eat slower, you will feel full sooner and will eat less. Eating less can help with not gaining weight. The faster you eat, the more food you eat, will add calories that you may not need and be stored as fat, plus if you are watching TV, reading a good book, playing on the computer or console or Surfing the net helps as well because your brain is not paying much to the amount as well! :)

Answer 2

Eating faster than normal keeps you from receiving signals that your stomach is full, but it also can give you a stomachache. Eating slowly allows you to recognize when you feel full, and it's easier to stop eating after you've eaten enough to stop hunger and provide nutrients for your body to use.

Answer 3

slow because if you eat fast, you may eat too much.

Also, if you eat slower.. your mind and stomach eventually realize that you are eating.. Your stomach is slow at sending messages to the brain to tell it when your too full, so taking 20-30mins to eat a meal usually gives you a decent time for your stomach to realize if it is full or not.

Therefore,

Eating slower is better as it usually fills you up better in the long run without over eating and feeling an after eating pain..

Acquire the habit of eating slowly to get satisfied with less food; there is a sensor in your brain (In the hypothalamus) that needs about 20 minutes to get the signal that you are satisfied, you can be full (even bloated) but not satisfied (still hungry). Being full is different from being satisfied; stop eating when you are satisfied, not full.

Give your system at least 20 minutes for the digestive and hormonal processes to take place and your hypothalamus will get the "satisfied signal" (Not hungry anymore).
