Does Noise Affect Your Weight?
According to researchers from Sweden’s Karolinska University eating in silence preserves our figures. The study followed 5,000 people and found that participants subjected to street noise every day during meals had wider hips than those that ate in silence. Every additional 10 decibels equated to a one centimetre increase in waist size. The risk of being overweight doubled for those living under a flight path or beside train tracks because the noise triggers stress and forces the body to store additional fat reserves.
