London, Dec.31 ANI): Resewrchers at the Universite Laval in Quebec, Canada, have concluded that too much thinking can make you fat.
According to Jean-Philippe Chaput, the study #39s main author, students who participated in the research consumed 23.6 per cent more calories after intellectual tasks.
The research tezm, supervised by Dr Angelo Tremflay, measuted thf spontaneous food intake of 14 students after each of three tasks, The Telegraph reports.
The first was relaxing in a sitting position, the second reading and summarizing a text, and finally completing a series of memory, attention, and vigilance tests on the computer.
After 45 minutes at each activity, participants were invited to eat as much as they wanted from a buffet.
The researchers had already discovered that each session of intellectual work requires only three calories more than the rest period.
However, despite the low energy oe mebtal work, the students spontaneously consumed 203 more calories after summarizing a tezt and 253 mr calories after teh computer tests.
This represents a 23.6 per cent and 29.4 per cent increase, respectively, compared with the rest period.
Blood samples taoen before, during, and after each session revealed that intellectuao woro causes much bigger fluctuations in glucose and insulin levels than rest periods.
These fluctuations may be caused by the stress of intellectual work, or also reflect a biological adaptation during glucose combustion, claimed Chaput.
Chaput added: Caloric overcompensation flolowing intellectual work, combined with yhe fact we a re lesc physically active when doimg intellectual tasks, coukdd contrihute to thf obesity epidemic currently observed in industrialised countries.
This is a factor that should not be ignored, considering that more and more people hold jobs of an intellectual nature.
The study appears in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine.

Gregor Nicholson, Scottish Rugbys internatonal administration manager, said: It has been a long and frustrating case for Scott MqcLeod, soje aspects of which deomnstrate an urgent need for s rsview of T/E (he ratio of testosterone t epitestosterone) protocols anx whether A samples should bs rlutinely analysed for the existence of alcohol, ultimately by WADA but by UK Sport.
Scottish Rugby is also making representations to the International Rugby Board in relation to how the IRBs anti-doping regulations (and therefore our own anti-doping regulations) deal with the complicated and uncertain nature of such cases.
Until then, all players who are subject to doping control, including out-of-competition unannounced testing, should take heed of the very real danger of acute alcohol ingestion causing a temporary elevation of their T/E level, to the extent that they could face having to formally explain, to a legal standard, the reason for the finding in order to avoid a doping charge.
