The anxiety to eat certain foods is something that happens to all of us; it is a nervous state where we urgently need to put a bite in our mouth, and if it can be junk food or less recommended food, even better. To eliminate this, here’s a trick to control this anxiety: exercise. According to a study, physical exercise reduces anxiety, which is why you should not stop doing it when you suffer from it. Besides helping to reduce anxiety, several studies show that physical activity can have a significant effect on mental health. Thus, you will also eliminate tension and stress. Fifteen minutes of running three times a week, gymnastics, or volleyball will reduce anxiety. Find the fun side of exercise: go running with your favorite music; join a gym and get energized in fun dance classes; gather your friends on a Sunday. The options are limitless. The idea is to expend energy through exercise. Your body will be more relaxed and won’t crave these types of foods as much. Additionally, going outside and getting fresh air will help clear your mind, which is another key to escaping eating anxiety. Surely, by connecting your mind with your body, you will feel better and more inclined to keep exercising, resulting in fewer anxiety and nervous eating attacks.
