The third mechanism in which acupuncture can help us control the weight is it helps stimulate
the certain brain area. This area is called hypothalamus and it gives us the full sensation
when we eat. So when you eat slowly, you are, the signals sent to the hypothalamus and then
gradually you feel full. But if you eat too fast, and then a signal hasn't been transmitted
to this area, then you don't feel full before you eat too much. And research shows, acupuncture,
certain points, can be used to enhance the neurons in this certain brain area. So that,
when you eat small amount of food, you feel full. In that way, you won't overeat. That's
the, another mechanism acupuncture help control the weight.
