Eating and brushing your phone makes it easy for people to eat more calories and control their weight.

Original title: Eat brush mobile phones
Researchers at the Federal University of Lavras in Brazil and the University medical center in Utrecht, the Netherlands, found that brushing your cell phone while eating tends to make people eat more calories and lose weight control.
researchers recruited 62 young volunteers to choose from healthy foods, soft drinks and chocolate to feed them. The researchers involved volunteers in three trials, the first to concentrate on eating, the second to eat while brushing their phones, and the third time to read paper articles. The results showed that when focusing on eating, the volunteers consumed an average of 535 calories, while the average 591 calories were consumed while eating and brushing their phones, and the overweight volunteers ate more, averaging 616 calories. The researchers also found that when they ate and brushed their phones, volunteers chose high-fat foods 10 percent more than when they ate attested. In addition, reading paper articles while eating can also make people eat more calories.
researchers believe that smartphones have become a major "distraction" in people, including children, when eating, preventing the brain from properly understanding the amount of food they eat, so it's important to focus on how mobile phones affect people's eating choices.
