The specialist named eating at the computer as one of the bad office habits.

In this case, a person cannot concentrate on eating and loses track of time.

As a result, in a short time you can eat more than planned.

And this is fraught with an excess of calories in the diet, which can subsequently affect the figure.

In addition, it is also harmful to replace main meals with snacks.

The expert noted that this also applies to snacks “on the run,” when there is not even time to fully chew the food.

But this, as the specialist pointed out, is very important for the normal functioning of the digestive system.

It is also not recommended to drink coffee instead of a snack or a full meal, otherwise this drink can irritate the stomach lining and lead to some other problems.

In addition, it is emphasized that against the background of regular mental stress, cravings for sweets may increase.

But such snacks will only provide a short-term burst of energy. Therefore, it is worth giving preference to slow carbohydrates.

Earlier, the doctor named foods that can lead to stress.
