Stress eating promotes weight gain

Craving comfort food when you're faced with work deadlines or a busy schedule? Turns out stress eating is a scientific fact! Studies found that stress combined with calorie-dense snacks triggers brain changes that lead to more eating, cravings for sweet food, and excess weight gain. The study reveals how stress overrides the brain's natural response to feeling full, continuously rewarding us to eat. Chronic stress and a high-calorie diet promote weight gain and a preference for highly palatable, processed foods. This research emphasizes again the importance of maintaining a healthy, nutrient-dense diet, especially during stressful times! #stress #stressrelief #stressfree #stressless #stressreliever #stressreduction #functionalmedicine #functionalnutrition #nutrition #freeconsultation #FreeAdvice #chronicconditions #vitamins #minerals #food #stresseating #weightgain Click here to read more about this study: https://www.sciencedaily.com/rel.../2023/06/230608120905.htm
