Do you go to the gym with the other half? It may not be good for your waist line.
An American study found that women are more likely to lose weight in the morning and men are more likely to lose weight in the evening.
And that’s far from the only surprising gender difference when it comes to lifestyle choices.
From staying healthy and keeping to sex and dieting, reveal why men and women are like chocolate, sorry, chalk and cheese.
diet
Women’s mental health may be brightened by eating less refined carbohydrates like white pasta.
An American study found that people who ate large amounts of food were one-third more likely to develop depression.
However, cheese may help prevent osteoporosis because it has lower bone density than men.
Meanwhile, guys can eat more dark chocolate. A study from Aberdeen University found that blood quality improves in both men and women, but even more in men.
Also, a surprising effect for colleagues is zinc-rich shellfish, which makes healthy sperm and boosts immunity.
sleep
Men can argue about this, but a team at Loughborough University believes the extra 20 minutes of keep is necessary because women’s brains work harder through multitasking.
Sleep expert Jim Horne says: “Women do a lot at once and use their brains more because they are flexible. That’s why their sleep needs are greater.”
At least, according to a report in the journal Behavioral Sleep Medicine, women sleep better when they share a bed with their partners, while women are often disturbed. Uncle is also more likely than missing a night owl.
sex
About 40% of women regret going to bed on their first date, while only 27% of the opposite sex.
In fact, more than a third of men claim to have found love after their first date.
However, different sexual positions can mean different calorie burns for him and her. She does most of the work while putting her feet on her floor and squatting over her lover.
For him, it’s best for her to lie on her back, legs raised, and behind her head.
practice
An American study suggests that women should exercise early in the morning to get rid of belly fat and lower blood pressure.
Studies have shown that moderate to vigorous fitness can lower your risk of breast cancer by 30 to 40 percent. Her pre-workout meal is fine for her when it comes to fueling her for her workout, but she’s not that great for him.
Dr. Adam Collins of the University of Surrey has found that women burn up to 22% more fat because their bodies are programmed to protect against carbs and burn fat instead. Men tend to consume carbohydrates.
relation
Married men are often happier and healthier. But sadly not in my wife’s case.
Paul Dolan, professor of behavioral sciences at the London School of Economics, advises that single, childless women are more likely to live longer.
On the other hand, chapters that tie the knot can see career advancement and better fit into the top 1% of income streams.
They are more likely to live longer, have less high blood pressure and avoid obesity.
Prof Dolan adds that married men tend to “calm down” and take less risk and make more money.
