Feel like eating chocolate? Some researchers, pretending to be that if your favorite candy bar becomes the tympanum is tucking, can reduce the amount of eating.
Carnegie Mellon computer science from the University of Pennsylvania, found that people who imagined repeatedly up to a maximum of eating food eating ended lower, it carries out research on a small scale.
If you've ever had the experience, you cannot stop thinking about the cookies until eventually breaking up and eat-you may well question how the findings are accurate, the scientist.
The investigation was very small, only 51 people, involving and was published in the Science Magazine. The participants were divided into four groups:
One group imagined repeatedly, eating (M & MS and cubes of cheese used in research) in the case of the foodstuff in the second group imagined it in a few timesA third group Imagine eating different foodThe final group does not Imagine eating anythingThe authors of the Study wrote that the first group "later consume less imagined food" than the other and shall be added:
They did so because they wanted to eat less, not because they liked it less nieltävissä. These results indicate that the mental representation alone agreement lääketottumuksen stimulus.
Plain English, that means that pretending I can make us may be used for something. You've probably noticed that the first favorite food bites are usually the best, because you can quickly become "habituated" it is.
Scientists believe that we have to get by, pretending that we are eating the food that is used in the same sense as we end up in a less satisfied.
Crackpot research or a new Enlightenment?
No I do not believe imagination is never intended to be as effective as the exercise combined with a healthy diet. But if you want to specify how much you eat this Christmas, only can be a test.
