If you ’ re concerned about gaining weight over the upcoming holiday
season,consider eating more slowly and you might consume less,a study
suggests.Diet experts have been promoting this advice for years,and now nutrition
scientists at the University of Rhode Island have some new data to back it up.
They had 30 normal-weight,college-age women come into a laboratory for lunch
on two separate occasions.Each time,the women were offered a huge plate full of
delicious food,plus a glass of water.They were asked to eat until the point of
comfortable fullness.On one occasion,they were instructed to eat as quickly as
they could; on the other occasion they ate slowly and put down their spoons between
bites.
They did not know the food and water were weighed before and after the meal
to determine the amount consumed.Findings were: When eating quickly,the women
consumed 646 calories in about nine minutes.When eating more slowly,they had an
average of 579 calories in about 29 minutes. “They ate 67 calories more in nine minutes than they did in 29 minutes,”
says lead researcher Kathleen Melans.“ If you add that up over three meals a
day,that’s a big difference in calories.”
“Upon completion of the meal and an hour afterward,the women were less
satisfied and hungrier when eating quickly compared with when they ate slowly,”
she says.
They said they enjoyed the meal more when they were taking their time.Not
surprisingly,the women drank more water when they ate more slowly,and researchers
are doing a follow-up study on whether that factor contributed to their feeling
fullness.
One way to help control calories intake during Thanksgiving is “to slow down
and savor (尽情享受) and enjoy your food more,” she says.

their lunch?( )
A.They reached different points of fullness. B.They were provided with
