You would never guess that a diet would be the occasion for a family scandal. But it happens often, especially when the couple is trying to lose weight together - the man melts pounds twice faster than the woman. This is not due to frequent workouts, and brains!
Is not no secret that men lose weight, grow fat and think about their weight differently. Also we all know that the female body stores more fat than men.
New research in the field, however, looks deeper into our reactions on food.
Dr. Gene Jack Wang collected a group of 23 volunteers - men and women. None of them suffers from obesity and they are all in good general health. Over the next 17 hours, each of them stood empty and the team asked them to make the classification of your favourite foods from 1 to 10. Then the researchers chose one type of food for each of them, it was assessed with 7 or more in the list of favourite foods. When 17 hours elapsed volunteers were injected with the chip that passed what is happening in their brain.
Then participants were shown one of my favourite dishes. Each of them was asked to think about something else, not for food over the next 40 minutes. When analyzing the results, it appears that for men is much easier to divert his thoughts from the food than for women. Women hunger level emotions while men drank this feature is absent. When you are hungry women are irritable and very emotional, can not concentrate and are not sufficiently productive, while men do not pass the physical need for food on an emotional level.
