Scientists at the University of Athens (Greece) in a recent study showed that eating fast, compared to doing it slowly reduces segregation of hormones in the gut that cause the feeling of being "full". The reduction of these hormones would lead to overeating and, therefore, to get fat.
In the experiment conducted by Alexander Kokkinos and colleagues Laiko General Hospital, a number of individuals took identical amounts (300 milliliters) of the same ice cream at different speeds. The scientists then took blood samples from all participants in the trial, finding that those who had eaten more slowly had higher concentrations of intestinal reducing appetite. Specifically, when ingested in thirty minutes the ice cream instead of five, concentrations of the gut peptides GLP1 and PYY was greater, which is why the feeling of satiety was presented before.
According to the researchers, these results help explain how the current lifestyle, with its fast pace, could be influencing the excess food we consume.
