5 things you shouldn't do when you're hungry

Bedtime

Many people who are lazy to eat or lose weight often go to sleep hungry. But this will make the stomach work less efficiently, causing fatigue, irritability and insomnia. So do not eat too much in the evening but also do not leave the stomach empty to sleep.

Drinking coffee

Even coffee without caffeine stimulates the production of acid, they can still cause heartburn and other gastrointestinal problems when drinking fasting coffee. Quitting breakfast after drinking coffee can lead to a deficiency of serotonin and a bad, lifeless mood.

Tip: If you can't give up your morning coffee routine, drink coffee with milk or cream by fat, milk will reduce the negative effects of coffee.

Drink alcohol

Drinking alcohol on hunger makes the rate of alcohol absorption increase twice, while slowing down the process of eliminating toxic substances in alcohol, causing discomfort. Meanwhile, alcohol will quickly leave a negative effect on your liver, heart, and kidneys.

Tip: If the situation does not allow you to refuse to drink alcohol, then it is better to eat something temporarily to belly (preferably a small sandwich, especially butter-containing food).

Chewing gum

When you chew gum, the stomach releases production digestive acid that is capable of destroying the lining of the empty stomach. Eating too much gum can lead to gastritis.

Tip: Choose chewing gum that contains natural sweeteners (xylitol, sorbitol) is less harmful than sugar-containing chewing gum, cyclamate or aspartame. Avoid chewing gum for more than 10 minutes, even when your belly is full.

Excessive exercise

There is an idea that exercising on an empty stomach will burn more calories. But in fact, that does not affect fat loss. When you exercise when you're hungry, it will greatly affect your skeletal muscles. If you want to exercise at a high level, you should eat a little something before practicing to not affect your stomach and musculoskeletal damage.

Tips: Replace high-intensity workouts with aerobic exercise. If you have digestive problems, you should have a snack before any kind of exercise because physical activity causes the production of gastric juice, which is harmful to an empty stomach.
