Five unexpected reasons for obesity

It's spring, and it's time for the weight loss team to expand. Don't just rush to lose weight. Let's take a look at the reasons for gaining weight that you would never dream of, except for eating too much and not exercising.

1. Incompatible interpersonal relationships

After a 10-year investigation, scientists found that if people often quarrel and have tense relationships with each other, their chances of suffering from health problems such as obesity and high cholesterol are twice as high as other people.

Happy and harmonious interpersonal relationships will keep the body's cholesterol synthesis system in a normal state, the blood composition will be healthier, and the immunity will be significantly improved.

Solution: For the sake of your health, please learn to maintain a peaceful mental state and live in harmony with people around you.

2. Use air conditioning

The human body has the ability to automatically regulate body temperature. Whenever the weather is too cold or too hot, this physiological function will be activated, and the body temperature will be maintained at a normal level by shrinking pores and sweating. This process requires the consumption of a lot of body fat to obtain the necessary energy. Because air conditioning provides humans with a constant temperature environment, it puts the body's original automatic temperature control function into a dormant state, causing fat that could have been consumed through regular regulation of body temperature to gradually accumulate. The comfortable environment brought by air conditioning makes people lose the opportunity of seasonal physiological weight loss.

Solution: Use air conditioning less or swim and participate in outdoor sports more often. Studies have found that in 26° water, even if a person does nothing, he will consume 100 calories more energy per hour than on the shore at the same temperature. In addition, you should go out for a walk in cold weather, exercise your body to enhance your resistance, and burn extra calories.

3. Not getting enough sleep or sleeping too much

Lack of sleep can cause the body's insulin to be unable to metabolize glucose normally, which may lead to obesity, while the insulin sensitivity of the normal sleep group is normal. It is not yet known whether improving sleep in sleep-deprived people can improve insulin sensitivity. Therefore, those who sleep more than 8 hours and less than 4 hours a day will gain weight . In addition, whether you lack sleep or sleep too much, it will also cause blood fat to soar, so it is scientifically based to say that you will gain weight if you eat and sleep and then eat.

Solution: Adequate sleep is good for health. The best solution is to add more than 30 minutes of aerobic exercise every day, which can effectively increase the basic consumption rate and invigorate the body from the inside out. Friends who lack sleep should pay attention to going to bed early and getting up early, try not to stay up late, and if you stay up late, you should find ways to make up for sleep in fragmented time. Friends who love to sleep can move more when they feel sleepy after sleeping for 8 hours, especially those who sit in the office, which can have a good effect.

4. Processed Foods

"Sweet additives" will cause the average person to eat 82 grams more carbohydrates per day, which is equivalent to 6-10% more calories per day. The foods that are most likely to make people gain weight are: sugars and sweeteners (16.1%), sweetened biscuits or breakfast cereals (12.9%), and sweetened drinks or fruit drinks (10%).

Solution: Learn to read the ingredient list, eat less snacks, and avoid sweet drinks.

5. Too much stress

If a person is under too much stress, the amount of fat accumulated in the abdomen will increase sharply . Because when the psychological stress is too great, the secretion of cortisol in the abdomen will increase, leading to fat accumulation. Cortisol is a hormone whose secretion is controlled by adrenaline. Therefore, if you want to maintain your devilishly good figure, it is best to relax.

Solution: Relax, avoid being trapped by a "two-point-one-line" life, cultivate your own interests and hobbies, make friends in the circle and share together, etc. are all good methods.
