 DUE TO POOR DIET
Eating habits at inconsistent times can disrupt circadian rhythms. Indirectly, this habit will also interfere
with the activity of the digestive system and metabolism.Various studies have shown that inconsistent
eating habits can lead to various disorders listed below.
1. Digestive disorders
Irregular eating can lower the thermal effects of the food you eat. The thermal effect is the energy you use
to digest and absorb nutrients.
2. Hormonal changes
Inconsistent eating habits can disrupt the hormonal balance in the body.Your body then releases the
hormone cortisol in response to that “danger” signal. An increase in the hormone cortisol can
interfere with various biological activities of the body, such as metabolism, inflammation, and
regulation of blood sugar.
3. Weight gain
A study in the journal Nutrients found that irregular eating habits can affect weight. People who are used
to this are even more prone to weight gain than people who eat regularly.
4. Increased blood sugar levels
Every time you finish eating, the pancreas releases insulin to stabilize blood sugar.
5. Stomach cramps
A person who often eats irregularly is more prone to stomach cramps. Usually, this complaint arises due
to disorders of the stomach such as gastric acid reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, stomach
infections, and so on.
