0:09 Hello. This is 6 Minute English from 0:11 BBC Learning English. I’m Sam. 0:13 And I’m Rob. 0:13 When someone feels sad or in a bad mood, 0:16 they often try to feel better by eating their favourite food… 0:20 I usually go for a peanut butter sandwich myself. 0:23 Do you have a favourite comfort food, Rob? 0:25 Hmm, maybe a cream chocolate éclair… 0:28 Comfort food is a type of emotional eating - 0:32 eating lots of food because we feel sad, not 0:35 because we’re hungry. But unfortunately, most 0:37 comfort food is high in carbohydrates and sugar 0:40 and, after a few minutes, it leaves us feeling even 0:43 worse than before. 0:44 Today, scientific research into the relationship 0:47 between what we eat and how we feel is growing. 0:51 In this programme we’ll be investigating the 0:54 connection between our food and our mood. 0:56 We’ll hear how healthy eating makes us feel 0:59 better, and of course, we’ll be learning some 1:01 new vocabulary as well. 1:02 Great! But first I have a question for you, Sam 1:08 People who link what we eat with how we 1:09 feel make a simple argument: the food you 1:12 eat supplies nutrients and energy to the brain, 1:15 and the brain controls our emotions. 1:17 Now, that might sound simplistic, but the brain is a 1:20 vital link in the connection between food and 1:24 our mood. So, Sam, my question is: how much 1:27 of the body’s total energy is used up by the brain? Is it: 1:31 a) 10 percent, b) 20 percent, or c) 30 percent? 1:35 Hmmm, that's a good question. I’ll say it’s a) 10 percent. 1:40 Right. Well, I’ll reveal the answer later 1:42 in the programme. Emotional eating is 1:45 often caused by feelings of depression, 1:47 anxiety or stress. Chef Danny Edwards, 1:51 who has suffered with depression, works 1:53 in one of the most stressful places imaginable - 1:55 a busy restaurant kitchen. BBC World Service 1:59 programme, The Food Chain, asked Danny 2:01 about his eating habits at work: 2:03 Actually, when you’re working in a kitchen 2:05 environment for long periods, your appetite 2:07 can become suppressed because you sometimes 2:10 don't want to eat, or you don't feel like you can 2:13 stop and eat, and all of that. So, it very often is 2:16 grabbing something on the go which obviously, 2:19 as we know, is not great for us… So you go for something 2:22 that’s quick, so hence why a lot of chefs have quite a bad diet. 2:26 Even though he’s surrounded by food, Danny 2:30 says that working under stress actually decreases 2:33 his appetite - the feeling that you want to eat food. 2:36 In a busy kitchen there’s no time for a sit-down meal, 2:39 so Danny has to grab and go - take something quickly 2:43 because he doesn’t have much time, although 2:46 he knows this isn’t very healthy. 2:48 So when even chefs have a difficult relationship 2:51 with food, what about the rest of us? Professor Felice Jacka, 2:55 is an expert in nutritional psychiatry. She studied the effect of 2:59 eating a healthy diet - food such as fresh fruit and 3:03 vegetables, wholegrain cereals, and olive oil - on people 3:06 suffering depression. Professor Jacka found that the patients 3:10 whose mental health improved were the same patients who 3:14 had also improved their diet. 3:15 But Professor Jacka’s ideas were not 3:18 accepted by everyone. Here, she explains to 3:21 Jordan Dunbar, presenter of BBC World Service’s, 3:24 The Food Chain, about the opposition her study 3:27 faced from other doctors: 3:28 So I proposed to do this for my PhD study, and everyone 3:33 thought I was a bit bananas, you know, and there was quite a 3:36 bit of, I guess, eye rolling maybe. I'm not surprised by that 3:40 because the discipline of psychiatry 3:42 was very medication and brain focused. What did people say 3:47 in the field? Were they sceptical? Oh, hugely sceptical 3:50 and sometimes very patronising. But this again comes from the 3:55 fact that general practitioners, psychiatrists, medical specialists 4:00 get almost no nutrition training through all those years of study. 4:04 When Professor Jacka investigated the link between food and 4:08 mood, her colleagues thought she was bananas - a slang 4:12 word meaning silly or crazy. They rolled their eyes - a phrase 4:16 which describes the gesture of turning your eyes upwards to 4:20 express annoyance, boredom or disbelief. 4:22 Other colleagues were patronising - they behaved towards her 4:26 as if she were stupid or unimportant. Professor Jacka thinks 4:31 this is because most doctors have little or no training about 4:35 nutrition and the effect of food on mental health. But her 4:38 ground-breaking research, named ‘The Smile Trial’, has been 4:43 successfully repeated elsewhere, clearly showing the link 4:47 between eating well and feeling good. 4:49 So, the next time you’re feeling down and your brain is calling 4:53 out for a donut, you might be better eating an apple instead! 4:57 And speaking of brains, Sam, it’s time to 5:00 reveal the answer to my question. 5:02 Yes, you asked me how much of the body’s energy 5:05 is used up by the brain. And I guessed it was ten percent… 5:10 Well, I’m afraid you are wrong. In fact, around 5:13 20 percent of the body’s energy goes to feeding the brain, 5:16 even though it only makes up two percent of our total body 5:20 weight. OK, let’s recap the vocabulary we’ve learned from our 5:23 discussion about emotional eating - that's eating too much food 5:27 because of how you feel, not because you’re hungry. 5:30 Appetite is the desire to eat food. 5:33 If you grab and go, you take something quickly 5:36 because you don’t have much time. Calling someone bananas is 5:40 slang for silly or crazy. If you roll your eyes, 5:45 you move your eyes upwards to show you feel annoyed, bored or 5:49 don’t believe what someone is telling you. And finally, if 5:52 someone is patronising you, they speak or behave towards you 5:56 as if you were stupid or unimportant. 6:00 That's the end of our programme. Don’t forget to join us 6:02 again soon for more topical discussion and useful vocabulary 6:05 here at 6 Minute English. Bye, everyone! 6:08 Bye!

Thank you BBC... for providing very useful content to improve my English skills

Thank you. Very informative

Hi. Food gives us emotions and mood. Sometimes when I eat my favorite food I feel better myself. My anxiety level gets down. But it was my bad habit. I got fat a little and didn't have any diets. Eat normally doesn't mean u should eat meals which gives u a good mood, that's about vitamins. I think when we eat our favorite food our dopamine level goes up. It works like that.

Thanks for videos. You help us for developing.

It's was a pleasure 😊. Thank you. Very informative

Sam Hello. This is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English. I’m Sam. Rob And I’m Rob. Sam When someone feels sad or in a bad mood, they often try to feel better by eating their favourite food… I usually go for a peanut butter sandwich myself. Do you have a favourite comfort food, Rob? Rob Hmm, maybe a cream chocolate eclair… Comfort food is a type of emotional eating - eating lots of food because we feel sad, not because we’re hungry. But unfortunately, most comfort food is high in carbohydrates and sugar and, after a few minutes, it leaves us feeling even worse than before. Sam Today, scientific research into the relationship between what we eat and how we feel is growing. In this programme, we’ll be investigating the connection between our food and our mood. We’ll hear how healthy eating makes us feel better, and of course, we’ll be learning some new vocabulary as well. Rob Great! But first I have a question for you, Sam. People who link what we eat with how we feel make a simple argument: the food you eat supplies nutrients and energy to the brain, and the brain controls our emotions. Now, that might sound simplistic, but the brain is a vital link in the connection between food and our mood. So, Sam, my question is: how much of the body’s total energy is used up by the brain? Is it: a) 10 percent b) 20 percent or c) 30 percent? Sam Hmmm, that's a good question. I’ll say it’s a) 10 percent. Rob Right. Well, I’ll reveal the answer later in the programme. Emotional eating is often caused by feelings of depression, anxiety or stress. Chef Danny Edwards, who has suffered with depression, works in one of the most stressful places imaginable - a busy restaurant kitchen.

When I am in a bad mood, I usually go for a vanilla ice cream and meatball, lol 😂

Is this a podcast?

I'm first!

I usually go for almonds when I'm down

When I feel hungry, my mood is always quite bad and I eat food urgently in response to decrease my sense of hungry. But unfortunately some people see it like bananas.

This kind of emotional eating and food or more specifically carb cravings are more common in females.....i have got pre menstrual nd menstrual cravings ... contribute much to my weight gain😢....

I like

I find cookie is a great comfort food

Thanks BBC My summary while listening Whenever we feel sad or in the bad mood, we tend to go for our comfort food which is a type of emotional eating. However, this kind of food can be high in carbonhydrates and sugar which leads to some health problems and leaves us feel even worse after consuming it. The today’s program will discuss the connection between our food and our mood. According to chef Danny Edwards, who works in one of the most stressful workplaces imaginable, shares about his diet and eating habits. Working in the kitchen for a long period of time, this actually decreases his appetite as he’s too busy to have a sit-down meal. Hence, it is common that he would grab something on the go beca it’s quick, that’s why many chefs have a bad diet. Turning to Felice Jacka, the professor and an expert in nutritional psychiatry, she found that once the patients improved their diets, their mental health issues also got better. Nevertheless, her study face huge skepticism from other doctors. Some of them are even patronizing and think she is bananas. Despite this opposition, her groundbreaking research has successfully repeated elsewhere, showing the link between eating well and feeling good.
