“Drop that spoon!  Speed eating can pack on the pounds.  Researchers measured the hormonal reactions of 17 men who ate 675 calories of ice cream in five minutes and again when they ate the same amount of ice cream over 30 minutes.  Wolfing down the dessert curbed the activity of hormones that tell the brain they gut is full.  The study suggests that a quicker pace can lead to overindulgence.” Source: Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, Oct. 29, 2009.  For additional information on clinically proven weight management click here.
