Young adults are more prone to developing an eating disorder if they engage in “cheat meals” that stray from their eating habits, a recent Canadian study has found.
The study found most cheat meals would range from 1,000 to 1,499 calories, and women would often gear toward salty and sweet foods, while men engaged in foods with higher amounts of protein. The study found men were more likely to engage in cheat meals and this would often lead to higher rates of binge-eating in order to control their weight or shape. Researchers say this is likely due to the culture of men’s health that promotes intense training and high-caloric meals for muscle growth.since women are most associated with restricting eating habits and exercising excessively.
