Whenever you see pictures of fitness musicians on Instagram and fine models on magazine pages, do you feel dissatisfied with your body? Well, besides you are not the only person to feel this, viewing these images can still harm your health. A recent study conducted by a group of researchers from the University of Bristol in the UK has shown that there are effects on perception and body satisfaction according to the weight of people exposed in the media, in especially in women. This means that the more the media insist on displaying thin bodies as a beauty model, the greater the number of people who develop eating disorders is big.
To achieve the result, the research was conducted with two distinct groups. In the first, 90 women aged 18 to 25 with a normal BMI (body mbad index) were randomly divided into three to complete, in 15 minutes, photos of women with normal weight (BMI 22-23 kg). per m²), or modified to appear to be below or overweight.
The second was identical except that the 90 participants had high body dissatisfaction and were badessed after 24 hours. A mega-badysis was also performed by combining the two groups of the research. Participants badessed the size of others' bodies, the self and their satisfaction with their own appearance before and after the task.
Post-task evaluations were compared between groups, adjusting the clbadifications made before the task. Participants exposed to images with excessive or normal weight perceived the bodies of the smaller ones compared to those shown below body weight. They also perceived their own smaller bodies and felt more satisfied with their bodies.
This study suggests that a media movement to use pictures of women with a BMI in the healthy range can help reduce dissatisfaction and bodily risk. badociated with eating disorders.
According to medical surgeon Victor Cutait, the result of the study can be easily understood with the question of body x self-esteem. "From the moment women become a real reference, the level of self-charging decreases, they realize that they do not need to be disgusted with sculptural bodies." and that they can be mere mortals, so they feel happier with their bodies, just as they should be. "
Brazil is the world's second-largest plastic surgeries country in the world, just behind the US Cutait believes that if the media as a whole used images of" real women, "unnecessary aesthetic procedures would also decrease considerably.
"Beauty is not a norm, people must respect their own standard, their genetics, there is no point in wanting to be what it is not because 39, no plastic surgeon will be able to do it.The person can be beautiful, it is what he is.Plastic surgery should not be done to achieve something imposed by society, by the husband , by the friends.You must do to please you.It is only this way that surgery is recommended, "says the doctor.
Body dissatisfaction is a risk factor for disorders of food and, therefore, the perception of appearance can be used to reduce the negative consequences of dissatisfaction.
