In previous studies it was determined that people should eat with the family to reduce the risk of obesity. Now scientists have proved that man can safely eat alone or in a group, but it is important to eat home-cooked meals and not to look at the TV. Study participants told researchers from Ohio Colleges of Medicine about how often they eat at home with family members, how often do you watch the TV, and what amount of food is prepared at home.

The researchers then calculated the body mass index of each person. If it exceeds 30, it talked about obesity. In this category fell by approximately 35%. The researchers found that the amount of food that a person consumes, together with members of his family, does not affect the likelihood of obesity. But home cooking has helped to reduce its risks.
