Eat less, can you make your stomach "hungry"?If you want to lose weight, you may still be in the drum

"Eating the stomach again is to be bigger" "" Eat a little less stomach will become smaller "... In life, we often hear these words. Many people habitually think that the stomach is like a balloon The more hungry, the smaller. Is this really true? Focusing on this issue, the reporter interviewed Jiang Xiaomeng, director of the Department of Gastroenterology, Affiliated to Yifu Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. He said that the size of the gastric capacity is actually constant, the stomach can be eaten, but it will not be hungry.

The telescopic stomach is only within the fixed range, and the larger and larger

"The stomach is a pocket structure. Generally speaking, the adult's stomach is about 25cm-30cm." Director Jiang Xiaomeng told the Yangtze Evening News/Zi Niu Journalist that everyone's stomach sac size before eating and eating The difference is because the main composition of the gastric wall has strong telescopic muscle, so that the stomach can "flex and extend".

We can understand the size of the stomach sac after eating normally as "stomach capacity". "The gastric capacity of an adult during an empty stomach is only about 50ml. With the intake of food, the gastric capacity can reach 1.5-2L, and the difference between the front and rear is between 30-40 times." The frequent expansion state, weakened the telescopic function, and the stomach wall is easy to relax during an empty stomach, and it will feel that the stomach becomes larger. Under such circumstances, the same tension is needed to produce more food. "In the long run, the function of gastric peristalsis, digestive function, and even the function of secreting gastric acid, digestive enzymes, etc. will be affected. What follows is gastric diseases such as indigestion, gastritis and even acute gastric dilation, and gastric perforation."

In simple terms, everyone's stomach capacity itself is constant. If you originally finished eating 1000 ml of food, it was already full. The stomach capacity after the stomach was enlarged is still 1000 ml, and it would not be able to eat it because of this, but it would hurt the body because of the large stomach support.

Can dietary "hungry"? This may be the "deception" of the brain to you

Of course, the stomach will not shrink because of less. Some people who lose weight through dieting may be confused. "I feel full now, isn't it because of being hungry and hungry, the stomach becomes smaller?" This may be just the brain's "deception" to you.

"How much can you eat, it has something to do with the gastrointestinal tract of everyone and the nerve regulation between the cerebral cortex." Director Jiang Xiaomeng said that if he diet for a long time, the brain will habitually open the "famine mode" and do not get enough food. It is time for instructions to suppress hunger, which makes people have an illusion of not hunger. Even if you are hungry, the stomach capacity will only return to the size of the empty stomach, and it will not "get the more hungry and smaller".

Long -term hunger, stomach lack of food stimulation, will insufficient stomach acid secretion and affect food digestion. The gastric mucosal gland is unexpected, and the mucosal glands atrophic may occur. The bile is stranded in the gallbladder for a long time, which is likely to induce gallstones. Therefore, don't think about losing weight by dieting "hungry" small stomach! Any irregular diet is a "abuse" of the stomach.
