Whether you realize it or not, mealtime is one of the essential moments that determine the quality of your life. How eat that is not good can affect your health which in turn has an impact on the continuity of your activities. Make sure you have quality meal times in the 5 ways below.
 
1. Chewing Food Slowly
This method will make you taste food and give you a fuller effect faster so you can limit the portions you consume. Reporting from http://dailymail.co.uk, research conducted by Dr. Xand van Tulleken proved that women who chew 35 times eat 30% fewer portions than women who chew 15 times. This will certainly help you to maintain or lose weight and prevent obesity.

2. Always Eat in the Dining Room
Hold on to watching your favorite television show, because eating while watching TV will make you not realize how much food you are consuming. You don't enjoy the process of eating that is being done so you will subconsciously keep looking for other foods because you don't feel full.
 
3. Cook and Enjoy Dishes with Loved Ones
Cooking and then enjoying your food with your family or loved ones will create a happier atmosphere than eating alone. Apart from producing food that is healthier than restaurants, eating together can also be an opportunity to get used to eating patterns with nutritious food menus, as well as create communication and bonding.

4. Have Regular Eating Hours
Apart from avoiding diseases that can appear when you eat late such as ulcers, having regular meal times will also create a regular digestive rhythm. You can also easily adapt a regular 'disposal' schedule to your activities, right?
 
If you eat three times a day, try to compress your menu for breakfast and lunch, while eating only light things for dinner. Skipping one meal schedule will make you tend to do 'revenge' at the next meal. Your stomach, which was initially empty, will be shocked and can experience bloating nausea, and even stomach pain. Continuing activities will feel uncomfortable.

5. Balance with Drinking Water
No matter how much you eat, you need to balance it with drinking water to make the kidneys work more effectively. Don't feel like you've been drinking a lot because you've consumed a lot of tea, juice, or other types of colored drinks, because water is the only thing that can meet the body's need for fluids and play a role in the digestive process. Lack of drinking water in addition to drinking lots of colored drinks can cause constipation and urinary tract infections, you know. Better to prevent than cure, right?
