Watch Less TV and Lose Weight
Listen here
A new study has found that people eat more when they watch television.
Dr. Harvey Anderson from the University of Toronto divided teenage boys into two groups: one which watched television and one which did not.
Each teenager was given as much pizza as he wanted to eat.
Dr. Anderson observed that the group which watched television ate an average of 228 calories more than the other group.
to divide: to separate into groups or parts.
to observe: to see, notice.
