Kaliningrad residents warned about the consequences of quick snacks

The habit of fast snacking can lead to weight gain and obesity. This was told by NEWS.ru senior lecturer of the Department of Fundamental Medical Disciplines of the State University of Education, Candidate of Medical Sciences Alexander Kalyuzhin.

According to the specialist, with a fast meal, the body does not have time to give a signal of saturation in time. As a result, people can eat more than they need.

The doctor also noted that snacking often occurs against the background of stress and emotional stress. In addition, such meals often consist of sweets, pastries and fast food, which can increase the feeling of hunger.

With a regular excess of calories, this can lead to gradual weight gain.
