Within the different problems that have to face the couples Currently, there is a lack of adequate communication , the infidelity , the need for both work due to economic conditions, the lack of weather to be together, as well as fall into habits that lead to a harmful routine as partner .

However, not much attention has been paid to a fundamental point in life in partner : the feeding . The couples they expect certain things from a relationship : sex, money and respect , but with an increasing number of dietary restrictions and different tastes, the kitchen it is becoming a complete territorial struggle, according to information from CNN.

According to a study by the University of Newcastle, when a partner decides to live together, both members must adapt to modifications in their eating habits .

The reasons for this dietary change are in the fact that both try to please each other during the initial period of your coexistence , trying to accommodate your routine to look good with your partner and eat foods what he or she prefers

Which ends up being harmful to one of the two and one more reason for disagreement. Especially for women , who tend to be more prone to suffer some consequences in their weight and figure .

This research shows that they tend to gain weight and increase the consumption of foods with a high content of grease Y sugar . In the case of men, the opposite occurs; at the beginning of coexistence reduce the level of grease Y sugar , raising the of the vegetables .

Therefore, Dr. Ramani Durvasula, clinical psychologist, offers some advice so that the feeding I do not know yet conflict in the partner , and achieve better habits :

1. Respect : Regardless of the reason for the choice (religion, ethical convictions, medical recommendations), it is fundamental that a person does not mock or ridicule in no way the elections of the partner .

2. Find a midpoint : Cook together or surprise the other when choosing a restaurant that suits the preferences of your partner.

3. Commitment : If the person with the most restrictions is also the one kitchen more, then there must be an arrangement so that one does not feel that there is no choice but to be vegetarian or something like that.

4. Communicate : These differences in elections they only work if there is a communication clear about the shopping pantry (perhaps one person would not buy meat for the other), the meal planning and the options of restaurants.

However, the study noted that both began to gain weight after starting the coexistence . Experts suggest that this may be caused by changes in the patterns of feeding and a tendency to devote less time to exercise , therefore, it is essential to acquire these healthy habits in partner and support each other.
