"Eat breakfast like an emperor, eat lunch like a commoner, and eat dinner like a beggar." It is generally believed that eating more staple foods for breakfast and less dinner is the most beneficial and healthy way to eat weight reduction, but can this really effectively control weight? According to BBC experiments, it is actually the same for eating less meals. If there is no need to make dinner, you have to eat less.
According to the small-scale study of the BBC's "Believe Me, I'm a Doctor", researchers will divide the subjects into three categories. The first group is "eat a lot of staple food for breakfast and less staple food for dinner", the second group is "eat according to their normal habits", and the third group is "eat less breakfast and more staple food for dinner". The test results were surprising. The average blood sugar value of the first group of breakfast was 15.9, while the average blood sugar value of the third group of breakfast was only 10.4, which was much lower than expected. The general conclusion of the study is that it is not important to eat more staple foods for breakfast or dinner. What is important is whether the time between the two meals of not eating staple foods (rice and noodles) is long. If the distance is long, the body will be well adapted. Researchers pointed out that this is natural in the morning because after sleeping all night, the intervals of not eating staple foods lasted long; but the test results also showed that if you eat less staple foods throughout the day, it would have a rough effect. In other words, if you eat less breakfast and more dinner for several days, your body can actually train yourself and eat more staple food at night.
The BBC pointed out that the same suggestion is that doctors should not worry about whether to eat more breakfast or more evening meals. As long as you maintain a certain eating rule every day, don't eat a lot of staple food every meal. More importantly, the difference in blood sugar peaks. If you have eaten a lot of rice and noodles for dinner today, then you should eat less foods high in sugar for breakfast the next day.
If you are a group that needs to control blood sugar or urgently reduce weight, but you don't know which staple foods are, the best way is to refer to the "My Meals" of the National Health Administration, and you can get 6 major foods (full-video, beans, eggs, vegetables, fruits, dairy and fruit seeds) at each meal. Wu Yingrong, executive director of the Taiwan Nutrition Foundation and assistant professor of the Department of Health Nutrition at Taipei Medical University, was reminded by the "Joint News" that the two types of sugars of all-video and fruit are relatively high, which directly affects blood sugar changes. Find out which vegetables are and which are all-purpose staple foods so that you won’t accidentally eat too much to make your blood sugar high and gain weight.
