Good Lifestyle

You knowkale And other super-passengers serve the vitamins and minerals you need to stay healthy and lose weight. But when it comes to putting the fork in the mouth, it is difficult to entertain for a big bowl of quinoa and vegetables when you really do not feel like that. There is good news, however: health health Boredom is about to become a thing of the past, and it is thanks to a team of scientists from the University of Cologne. And no, they did not invente a special powder that makes the apples and carrots look like a cake. Sorry!

Researchers who have published their discovery in the newspaper,Psychology of health, found that women noticed healthy dishes more favorably when they prepared the food itself. If you think this trick seems too easy to be legitimate, we assure you that this is not the case. To arrive at this discovery, the researchers split a group of 120 women in two and gave a group of chocolate milkshake "unhealthy" and the other group a raspberry "healthy"smoothie. In each of these categories, some women were responsible for drinking themselves and other women had the drink prepared by researchers. The experience has measured the taste of women and perceived the health of food through written follow-up questionnaires. The researchers found that women who made the healthy smoothie himself found the drink to be significantly more satisfactory than those who had the beverage prepared for them. As for the members of Milkshake, they found the treatment equally as satisfactory, regardless of which has prepared it. (Basically, a chocolate treatment is great, no matter who does it. But you already knew that.)

This phenomenon, nicknamed "The IKEA effect", explains that humans obtain more reward and satisfaction of the products they have partially created, whether it is an end table, a smoothie orchia pudding. But when it comes to food, there is much more than the satisfaction of the line. There are also thin benefits. A study revealed that frequent home cooks consume 137 calories and 16 grams of sugar less sugar every day, on average, than those who regularly eat in the restaurants! Ready to cook?
