Three meals a day, in addition to filling the stomach, the human body should also be supplemented with enough energy and nutrients, so as to make the normal operation of the body, do not affect the normal activities, if there is a mistake in eating, will have more impact on the health of the body, therefore, diet and health have an inseparable connection.

The relationship between them is not only about eating or not eating, but also about whether eating is reasonable. With the occurrence of more diseases, a large number of people begin to pay attention to their own physical conditions and no longer choose to ignore them. As we learned more, we found that there are many dietary habits that may cause some health problems, and even some that have a significant impact on longevity.

There are quite a few people have heard a saying that is to eat less, live longer, hear the statement like this, some people begin to diet, eat less as far as possible let oneself, even some people to save a meal, and not to eat dinner, some, in order to preserve one's health, in the afternoon that you don't eat, some people, is in order to lose weight, insist on not to eat dinner, the end result?

Do you really live longer if you eat less?

Will appear this kind of view, because of a study, research has shown that want to slow down the ageing, obtain more long life, need to calorie restriction, also hope to limits on some food, in a sense is high heat food should eat less, also can help to reduce fat intake, prevent fat accumulation in the body.

After the fat in the body becomes less, a lot of problems are not easy to occur, such as three high, obesity, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, digestive tract diseases, because the fat becomes less, and reduce the incidence. The incidence of disease is lower, health is more guaranteed, the physical state will be better, naturally can delay aging, make life longer.

However, nothing is absolute, the occurrence of disease is not only fat, but also involved in many aspects, smoking, drinking, genes, age, exercise, mood may affect life span, just from the food aspect, to define eating less to live longer, there is a little insufficient evidence.

In addition, in addition to food problems, eating habits will also have an impact on health. Some people eat too fast, or meals are irregular, and some people always eat too much, which may cause damage to the body and cause some diseases. There is also a possibility that eating less will lead to a longer life. After overeating, it is easy to burden the stomach and liver, causing some diseases, and has some impact on life expectancy, but this is not enough to determine that eating less will lead to a longer life.

So, what happens to people who often skip dinner?
