New Year's feast justifies overeating and excess. This is a turkey with a side dish, and salads with mayonnaise, and pies, and wine. Another holiday party at the office and so on for several days in a row. On average, over the New Year holidays, a person consumes over six thousand calories. So, in the topic of today's publication, we will analyze whether excess brings benefit or harm, the meaning of this word.
What is this?
First of all, we note that this is a hidden form of greed. And not only. Excess is the abuse of any pleasure. May be expressed in different ways. It could be:
- excess in food, that is, overeating;
- excess in love, that is, promiscuity;
- eating something beyond measure or norm.
Excess leads to dullness. When a person does not have an inner world, then he needs an external one with frequent changes in pictures and plots, which, in turn, also leads to excesses. In a male conversation, this trait is ruiningthe integrity of the individual. Only in men. For a woman thinks with two hemispheres at the same time, and excess in speech does not harm her in any way.
And there are spots in the sun
So, continuing the theme of excesses, let's remember the legendary Elvis Presley. What happened to him happened to him: he became rich and famous. But over time, from a rock and roll rebel, he turns into an obese honored artist, a performer of light songs. What happened to him? Blame it all - excesses in food. He could wake up the cook at three in the morning and ask her to fry a juicy cutlet. In public, he felt uncomfortable, but at home he completely relaxed. Each of these cutlets contained about five hundred kilocalories. The excesses in food also affected the appearance of the legendary artist.
Food addiction
It should be noted that excesses can become a trap for the human body. After all, during overeating, drinking alcohol, the substance dopamine is produced, which is associated with a feeling of pleasure. That is, a person may depend on certain foods that contain a high percentage of sugar and fat. For example, chocolate.
The consequences of such overeating are obvious - people suffer not only from excess weight, they become addicted to food, and the use of large quantities of certain foods leads to a number of diseases. Large portions of junk food, its variety only exacerbates the problem.
It takes 20 minutes for the human brain to signal to the body that it is full. During this time, a person manages to eat more than one piece of pizza,especially if he does it in a friendly company. Therefore, you need to control your impulses, eat slowly, chewing food thoroughly.
