Did changing the habit of overeating on September 6th (Friday) lead to significant changes in weight and heart health?

Trying to break the habit of overeating and eating too salty foods these days, but it's really not easy.ㅠㅠ

It is naturally known by everyone that eating a lot of food leads to excess calories and weight gain.

Since obesity is said to significantly increase the risk of heart disease, this seems to be an area to pay attention to.

 

Overeating puts too much strain on the heart... Why?

 

If you overeat, your heart has to pump more blood to aid digestion. This inevitably puts a strain on the heart. Especially after eating a lot of late-night snacks, even if other organs rest, the heart has to work harder when you go to sleep. For heart health, meals should be small and frequent.

 

Foods that raise blood cholesterol vs foods that lower it

 

Saturated fatty acids found in animal fats raise blood cholesterol levels and negatively affect the cardiovascular system.

Reduce the intake of pork fat, ribs, meat organs, ham, bacon, coffee creamer, ramen, various snacks, and bread products.

 

Plant-based fats and fish contain unsaturated fatty acids that lower blood cholesterol levels. It is recommended to consume whole grains, legumes, and nuts that are rich in unsaturated fats.

 

Eating too salty... negatively affects heart health and weight loss

 

If there is a high amount of salty components in the body, it increases blood flow and raises blood pressure. Since hypertension is a cause of heart disease, it is advisable to avoid excessive salt intake.

Consider the salt content included in fermented seafood, soups, stews, kimchi, pickled vegetables, processed foods, dried seafood, instant foods, soy sauce, soybean paste, red pepper paste, chemical seasonings, and various sauces.

 

Dietary fiber found in oats, barley, vegetables, fruits, and seaweed helps reduce blood cholesterol levels and has a preventive effect against heart disease. For health, salt should also be consumed. However, overeating is always a problem.
