WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR BODY WHEN YOU EAT TOO QUICKLY?

WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR BODY WHEN YOU EAT TOO QUICKLY? 

_ POOR DIGESTION: 

When you eat too fast, you don’t chew food properly. This makes it harder for your stomach to break down food, leading to Bloating, Gas and Indigestion

_ OVEREATING AND WEIGHT GAIN:

It takes about 20 minutes for your brain to register fullness. If you eat too fast, you may eat more than your body needs before realizing you're full — which can lead to excess calorie intake and weight gain over time

_ HIGHER RISK OF ACID REFLUX:

Swallowing large chunks of food and air quickly can cause acid to rise up from your stomach, resulting in heartburn and acid reflux

_ INCREASED RISK OF METABOLIC ISSUES:

Studies have linked fast eating to a higher risk of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure

_ LESS ENJOYMENT OF FOOD:

Rushing through meals means you’re not savoring flavors or textures, which can reduce satisfaction and lead to emotional eating later.
