This is what a lot of food in your body

It is probably the last thing we want to think about these days, but still: what does that Christmas thing do with our bodies? That we eat too much is clear: on an average Christmas day we take 6,000 calories to us. And your body reacts to that. First, you become tired. "By eating a lot, the glucose rises in your body and you start to produce a lot of insulin in response to it. Then you get a 'glucose crash', because the insulin makes the glucose disappear quickly from your body, "Dietician Geraldine Georgeou explains.
You also suddenly need to go to the toilet, although the turkey really can not be digested yet. "A quick stomach emptying occurs when you get a lot of sugars at once and your stomach gets overloaded. Overeating can make sugar from your stomach disappear too quickly in your gut, causing you to get diarrhea, "says Georgeou. If you do not chew well and eat quickly and often, you can also feel bloated and suffer from flatulence. Carbonated drinks reinforce that problem.
And of course you will eventually become nauseated by all that food. Georgeou knows: "Fat breaks down the slowest, so it takes longer before your stomach is empty. It requires a lot of your digestive system, which can lead to a nauseous feeling. " After all, all that food is also bad for your night's rest. "If you have eaten a lot of carbohydrates, you get a big glucose wave. When you try to sleep, it drops very quickly, so you can wake up regularly. " But probably you take all these ailments for granted and you enjoy all the delicious food you get served.
