Research has shown that one-third of vegetarians consume meat when drunk, and 69% of those who do keep it a secret from friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>Among those who have consumed animals while intoxicated, 39% said they ate sausages, 34% opted for beef burgers, and 27% admitted to eating bacon. <strong>But why does this happen?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some time ago, the University of Liverpool investigated why we crave fast food when we&#8217;ve been drinking, observing the influence of alcohol on energy intake and dietary restraint.<\/p>\n<p>They found that after 50 students drank vodka with lemonade, they consumed more cookies than those who received a placebo drink, which they attributed to weakened inhibitory control. <strong>In other words, being drunk impairs our ability to say no.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many people believe there are two reasons why we crave unhealthy food. One is that it&#8217;s salty and full of &#8220;crunch&#8221; \u2013 crispy chips, crunchy bacon. Others say that the craving results from the body&#8217;s demand for specific macronutrients.<\/p>\n<p>That addictive blend of fats, sugars, and proteins is irresistible to our brains. And because of that mixture, we believe we&#8217;re getting nutrients \u2013 even though we never actually feel satisfied from it.<\/p>\n<p>According to Science, another factor is our production of something called galanin. Galanin is a neuropeptide \u2013 a very small protein found mainly in the nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord. When you drink, alcohol increases the amount of galanin in your brain.<\/p>\n<p>So, consuming fatty foods and alcohol causes your body to produce more galanin, which, in turn, drives you to eat more fat and drink more alcohol. In other words, it&#8217;s a vicious cycle!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A large number of vegetarians have admitted to eating meat when intoxicated.
