A photo from open sources To such a “funny” conclusion American scientists studying the issue of therapeutic fasting. IN unlike men, they say, women it’s much harder to suppress a feeling of hunger.
Scientists have conducted more than one experiment: women and men are not allowed to eat for some (considerable) time, after which before all kinds of dishes were arranged by them, but at the same time they offered to suppress hunger by willpower. At this time, the brain of all participants The experiments were scanned by a tomograph.
To the surprise of American researchers, areas of the brain, directly responsible for appetite, exclusively in all women remained very excited, despite the efforts of the lovely ladies to be on high. But for men, the picture of “suppressing appetite” was completely different, that is, they could easily control it with a simple effort the will.
The experiment clearly showed why women find it harder hunger strikes, fasting and other food restrictions. Not by chance and the brightest representative of the school of fasting was a man Paul Bragg, not a woman.
