You eat high calories and fatty foods, but if you let your guard down, it can lead to overeating, so you need to be careful.
Eating more food than necessary at once is called overeating. It can happen if you eat too much already before you feel full due to irregular eating habits at once or in a hurry.
In addition, overeating can be induced in special situations such as holidays, family gatherings, and festivals, such as being stressed, comforted with food due to psychological factors such as depression, anxiety, or in environments where it is difficult to control due to abundant food.
Eating a lot of food beyond the energy our body needs can overload our digestive functions, resulting in indigestion such as heartburn, belching, and abdominal bloating, and consuming a lot of high-calorie food for a short period of time can easily accumulate fat and lead to weight gain.
In addition, as blood sugar rises and falls sharply, drowsiness or fatigue can come. At this time, lying down or falling asleep before digestion is completed puts additional burden on the digestive system. Repeated overeating can lead to chronic diseases such as obesity, high blood pressure, and diabetes, so be careful.
To prevent overeating, it is recommended to enjoy autumn seasonal foods in moderation but maintain a balanced diet including dietary fiber and protein. At the beginning of a meal, it is more effective to eat light foods such as vegetables and vegetables first rather than foods with high calories, and it is also a good way to control the amount by taking a little bit using a front plate.
Eat slowly so that you can feel full, and if you feel hungry between meals, it is recommended to eat healthy snacks such as nuts and fruits. This helps to prevent overeating and maintain a healthy diet.
If you inevitably overeat, it is important to promote digestion and release sodium by drinking enough water. If you have mild indigestion symptoms, it is helpful to eat peppermint tea, ginger tea, green tea, etc., or to stretch or take a walk.
It is recommended to give the digestive system a break by skipping the next meal or replacing it with a light diet centered on vegetables. Sometimes extreme fasting is done after overeating, which rather stresses the body or may not be appropriate depending on the individual's health condition, so caution is required.
If the feeling of fullness is maintained even after a certain period of time after overeating, it is recommended to give the digestive system a break through fasting for 6 to 12 hours. At this time, it is recommended to drink a lot of water to maintain the water balance in the body, and to reduce the burden on digestion and to choose porridge or vegetables to help recover the body.
Lim Tae-won, director of the Department of Gastroenterology at Daedong Hospital, said "In the fall, we often overeat more than usual, but we need to consciously manage our eating habits, recognizing that it is a behavior that negatively affects our health."Sudden increase in appetite may be an environmental factor, but if you feel uncomfortable in your daily life or if it is difficult to solve it alone, it may be a symptom of the disease, so it is better to visit a nearby medical institution to get help from medical staff," he advised.
