Michael Mosley's advice could help ward off junk food cravings
It is perfectly acceptable to indulge in a chocolate bar, crisps or a takeaway. But if you find yourself consuming these treats more than you'd like to, Micheal Mosley has shared some tips to help successfully ditch junk food.
Junk foods trigger the same brain circuits as addictive substances, which may why so many people struggle to give them up. Michael added that over consumption of ultra processed food can lead to weight gain and potentially chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Michael explained: "Sleep deprivation peaks a lipid in your bloodstream called an endocannabinoid actually making eating more pleasurable. So try to get an earlier night, and reduce your risk of reaching for unhealthy food."
He said: "The convenience of eating on the go, and the kick that a sugar hit gives you while you’re out and about can result in poor food choices, so try to anticipate this if you know you’re going out. Pack your lunch ahead of time for a meal just as convenient, but without the negative effects." He suggested: "Switch out your daily chocolate fix for nuts and seeds instead, try Greek yoghurt with berries instead of pudding for dessert, or try swapping your simple carbs for a veggie alternative, like cauliflower instead of white rice."
