Hey,
Yummy spicy potato chips….I can’t stop myself for eating more. Do you know why we can’t resist our self to stop eating more chips or sometime full packet? Now I will reveal this scientific secret. "Hedonic Hyperphagia” yes this is the culprit that plagues hundreds of millions of people around the world. It means eating to excess for pleasure, rather than hunger which can be key factor for obesity or overweight. Now question is why this condition occurs, why we attracted to these foods even on a full stomach…answer is reward center of brain which delivers a sense of pleasure and focuses the attention of the individual so that he or she learns to repeat the behavior once more. Other than potato chips many foods that stimulate reward center i.e. chocolates, sweets, cheese, fast foods etc. Yet our scientist don’t have any evidence that whether its high fat or crabs or anything else which triggers reward center after knowing the fact it is possible to develop drugs or nutrients to add to foods that will help block this attraction to snacks and sweets. Meanwhile we can substitute these triggers for potato chips with the help of healthy options like baked apple, banana, vegetable chips, multigrain crackers, crisp bread, rice flakes, roasted popcorns etc. hope these options will stop your craving for potato chips.
