I come from an Italian family where food was the centerpiece of meals and conversation surrounded it. We argued about politics, relatives, and whether black or green olives were better. It was always fun (most of the time). The talking and gossiping caused us to eat slowly. It’s pretty hard to eat and talk with a meatball in your mouth. Well, eating slowly is a great health tip and when you add good conversation, it’s a feel good hack.
Eat Slowly
This gives your brain the chance to get the signal that you’re full, so you’re less likely to overeat. And if you take it slow, you’re more likely to think about what you’re eating and make sensible, healthy choices.
I am an optimistic, can do, and never quit guy. The spirit of hope indelibly marks my DNA. My research at The Ohio State University helped people discover the best in themselves and change their personal lives, public organizations, and whole communities. I bring the same spirit and enthusiasm to my blog to help those who grieve who find themselves suddenly alone, navigate their grieving. Join my more than 24,300Twitter (@alwaysgoodstuff).
