Dieting Using Horror Movies
May 12, 2016 11:25
According to a study of University of Westminster, people consume their energies 33% more than usual during watching horror movies.
In fact, the average calorie consumption by watching a 90 minutes horror movie was 133 kilocalories.
The reason for the increment of consumption calories is because rapid-acting adrenaline is secreted by fear, and it increase metabolism.
Also, the more fear the movie is, the more calories you consume.
By the way, "The Shining" showed the highest calorie consumption in this study.
I don't like horror movies very much, but people who love them might enjoy adrenaline secretions.

ホラー映画でダイエット
ウエストミンスター大学の研究によると、ホラー映画を見ると33%多くのエネルギーを消費するそうです。
実際、90分のホラー映画を見たときの平均消費カロリーは113kcalでした。
これは、30分のウォーキングに相当するカロリーです。
カロリー消費量の増加は、恐怖によって即効性のあるアドレナリンが分泌し、代謝が増加することが原因のようです。
また、映画が怖いほど消費カロリーも大きく、今回の検証では「シャイニング」が最も高い数値を示しました。
私はホラー映画が苦手ですが、好きな人はアドレナリンの分泌を楽しんでいるのかもしれません。

In fact, the average calorie consumption from watching a 90-minutes (long) horror movie was 133 (kilo)calories.
"Kilocalaries" is technically correct, but when talking about food, the word "calorie" is usually used to mean "kilocalorie".
- The reason for the increment of consumption calories is because rapid-acting adrenaline is secreted by fear, and it increase metabolism.
-
The reason for the increased consumption calories is that fear causes the secretion of (rapid-acting) adrenaline, and it increases the metabolic rate.
Actually, adrenaline is not "rapid-acting", which would mean that it took effect rapidly. What you probably mean is that the secretion of adrenaline enables a person or animal to take action rapidly.
- Also, the more fear the movie is, the more calories you consume.
- Also, the more scary the movie is, the more calories you consume.
- By the way, "The Shining" showed the highest calorie consumption in this study.
- By the way, "The Shining" produced the highest calorie consumption in this study.

"Adrenaline secretions" is scientifically correct, but not how people usually talk about the experience.
即効性のあるアドレナリン = adrenalin, which is present during rapid action
