Growing Waistlines and Naughty Foods
Todays Health Article
March 29th, 2011
Today we have a lot to talk about, regarding our growing waistline’s and where they may be heading. For most people, now days, is just an acceptance that they are or a mere fact of life. However, if you were to ask most people about their waist today, most would reveal that maybe it’s time. It is time to make the necessary changes, to stop eating the naughty foods and eat right. Many have come to realize that unless they take charge and eat healthier, their lives are going to be shorter and filled with illnesses related to obesity.
Naughty Foods
These foods are usually loaded with calories, fats, and sugars. However, they only become naughty when they become a consistent, or a staple, on a daily basis. A bowl of ice cream or a donut will not make a difference unless you consistently continue to chow them down. So if you were watching your intake, burning more or equal to what you had taken in, junk that is considered naughty will not add to the waistline, where the problem lies if you watch the calories eating naughty food, you may not be very healthy or may still feel Hungry. That is where the problem comes in, many of the Naughty Foods have been Jumble Sized to go along with our jumble size waste.
Highly palatable foods, such as those available from fast food chains, are “layered and loaded with fat, sugar and salt,” all of which, instead of satiating us, actually prompt us to continue eating, said Dr. David Kessler, former FDA commissioner and author of “The End of Overeating” (Rodale Books, 2009). Such foods cause particular excitement in areas of the brain associated with emotion and reward — much like alcohol, sex and drugs.
Why we eat the Naughty Foods
I think the average person knows what naughty foods are and there several articles listen on this site that spell out those Naughty Foods for those of you who are unsure. The “WHY” we eat these naughty foods may be for many reasons.
- Place where you work, if you are employed at a Fast Food establishment, very temping to eat the food.
- When travelling, you do not to spend the time looking for something healthy, or you are unfamiliar of your eating options, and end up snacking.When I was on an airplane, I found this to be true.
- Many business meetings limit your eating options, and are forced to eat whats available.
- Those tempting snack bars left in your hotel rooms.
- Today there are vending machines in almost every high traffic areas…. from hospitals to schools. Snapping up your pocket change.
- Last. but perhaps most important, the food industry has come to recognize that appearance, flavorings, sugars, caffeine, and others that enhance the taste to taste buds, and are pleasing to our nose.
Waistlines may be in Proportion to
* Not only to the intake of our Naughty food but may be related to our genetics as well.”Skinny people do still exist. These people have won “the throw of the genetic dice,” said Susan Carnell, an obesity researcher at the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York.
* Genes likely control how easily one feels satiated, researchers are finding. People who lack the genes for a voracious appetite often don’t understand how hard it is for someone who isn’t so genetically lucky, Carnell said.
* New research has shown that an unborn child may receive “epigenetic” messages in the womb about how to regulate his or her weight. Epigenetics is the idea that even if genes themselves aren’t altered, how they function can change
*Research has shown that if your friends are fat, you are more likely to be also! A reason might be, a restablishing what you consider normal. So these findings suggest that obesity has cultural, psychological causes, and physiological ones.
* Cars, chairs and sofas are where alot of time is spent today. We are walking less now days, exercising a lot less, and while spending the time on the couch, snacking more. “But if you want to lose a bulge, or ten, and “you are not reducing calories, just exercising, it will take a very long time to lose a single pound,” said Caroline Apovian, an obesity researcher at the Boston University School of Medicine.

While genes and environment are responsible for two-thirds of the differences in people’s waitlines, the remaining is psychological. On a daily basis I see peoples lifestyle drive them to self-medicate with food. Also stress and lack of sleep may take an unfriendly toll on metabolism.With some research how fast food has become a culture in the US, so has the bulging waistlines become a culture or a way of life. Along with those, the illnesses linked to obesity. Naughty foods have been so much a part of our lives, as this article indicates, but if we want our waistlines to become slimmer and our bodies healthier, there is no better time than now to begin.
