Teenagers who turn off the TV and sit down to family meals are less likely to suffer eating disorders(失调).

A study has connected eating together with lower rates of bulimia(暴食症) and anorexia(厌食症). Teens used to eating around the table are less likely to take up smoking to lose weight.

Researcher Barbara said, “The common belief is that teens don’t want to be around their parents very much, and that teens are just too busy to have regular meals with the family.”

The study shows happy families have teenagers who eat with their parents often. These teens have less bad diet or dangerous eating habits.

“Parents may not be able to get their family together around the table seven days a week, but if they can prepare three family meals a week, this will have a big impact on the health of teens,” Professor Fiese spoke out after reviewing 17 studies on eating ways and nutrition(营养) of almost 200,000 children and teenagers.

She found that teens who eat at least five meals a week with their families are 35% less likely to be “disordered eaters”.

The definition(定义) of disordered eating is eating too much, or eating at wrong times too often or eating very little and smoking to lose weight.

Even three family meals a week helped, with youngsters 12% less likely to be overweight than those who ate with their family less often.

Teens can also use family meals as a time to get their thoughts across. They were also 24% more likely to eat healthy foods and have healthy eating habits than those who didn’t share three meals with their family.

Professor Fiese said, “Family meals give them a place where they can go regularly to check in with their parents and express themselves freely.”

In the past American research found children who miss out on family meals are much more likely to fight at school, drink and take drugs(毒品).

根据材料内容选择最佳答案，将其标号填入题前括号内。

A. They are too busy to have meals.

B. They have to have meals at school.

C. They don’t want to be with their family very much.

2.What can we infer(推断) from the passage?

A. The more often teens eat with their family, the healthier they are.

B. Parents should get their family together round the table 7 days a week.

C. More fighting and smoking will happen because of no family meals with teens.

D. Teens with five family meals a week live longer than those with three meals a week.
