Eating After A Long Break Doesn't Lead To Weight Loss, Study Finds:
A recent study conducted by American experts has shown that dieters who want to lose weight do not lose weight if they take long breaks between meals or eat late.
Overweight people usually take long breaks between breakfast, lunch, and then dinner, believing that doing so will not make them gain weight, but lose it.
Common people also have the same thought that there is no weight gain if there is a long gap between meals, but recent research has shown that a long gap between meals has no effect on weight.
According to research published in the medical journal 'JAMA', American experts conducted a 6-year study on 547 volunteers to explore the relationship between meal breaks and weight loss.
Experts hired men and women between the ages of 18 and 51 to study their height and weight, as well as their sleep duration, mealtimes, and daily routines.
The experts gave all the volunteers an application, on which they were instructed to enter all the data and the experts also assessed their weight every 6 months for 6 years.
Half of the volunteers in the study were women, and most were 51 years old and overweight. Research has shown that taking longer breaks between meals does not lead to weight loss.
Experts said the results showed that eating less food may lead to weight loss, but eating late or eating it after a long interval did not make a difference.
According to experts, people's sleep duration and their lifestyle are also a reason for not reducing weight, however, taking a long break between meals and then overeating is the main cause of weight gain.
Experts said that people who want to lose weight should eat 500 calories a day instead of 1,000 calories, that is, they should eat less food and not eat a large meal after a long break between meals.
