没有人能够抵挡得住零食的诱惑。但与此同时,你也可能低估了零食中所含的热量。
如果每天一包薯片,会发生什么?
据英国《泰晤士报》报道,如果每天多吃一包薯片,一年后体重将增加约6.4公斤。
People drastically underestimate the number of calories in their snacks, with experts warning that eating a bag of crisps every day could lead to a stone of weight gain in a year.
英国慈善机构Nesta的一份报告显示,在2000名受访者中,约3/4的人低估了小幅减少的热量摄入对体重的影响。
A survey of around 2,000 adults found that around three quarters underestimated the impact of a small reduction could have. One in ten believed that cutting 200 calories a day would not affect weight.
同时,很多人似乎并不清楚自己吃的零食中到底有多少热量。
根据Opinium发布的一项调查,尽管受访者对于自己所吃主食的热量含量估计基本正确,但他们对于零食中热量的估计值却与正确值相去甚远。
When it came to snacks, people struggled, with 95 percent guessing that half a sharing bag of tortilla chips had 214 calories on average, almost half the true figure of 447.
人们很难对零食中所含热量做出正确的估算。95%的受访者认为半袋油炸玉米片含有214卡路里热量。但实际上,这个估算值连实际值447的一半都不到。
报道还指出,零食在英国家庭饮食中的占比逐年走高,疫情导致的封锁让民众摄入了更多的零食。
总忍不住买零食?“食物环境”要背锅
尽管我们都知道吃零食对健康无益,有时却还是会不自觉地用零食塞满购物车。不要总责怪自己自制力差
