Does Lunch At Your PC Make Your Eat More?
If you eat lunch parked in front of your computer every day, you need to know that this habit may be boosting your appetite.
Most of us know the advice to avoid eating in front of the TV or computer, but many completely ignore that message.

Previous studies have demonstrated that distractions at mealtimes lead to eating more, however this study, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, went a little further, showing the effects of this distraction actually last beyond the meal.
