Eating too fast leads to overeating because it take a while for your stomach and your brain and your mouth to coordinate things...
Studies have also shown that the more delicious a food is the FASTER we inhale it!
Slow down!!! Take some time to actually let the flavors linger on your tongue. Chew your food completely, and savor the texture! Extra time eating lets you feel full with less food.
Tips to help you eat better:Take drinks of water between bites to fill you up faster and clear the palette.Cut up your food and eat it in bites as if you were going to feed it to a small child.Close your eyes and really focus on the texture and tastes you are experiencing.Do not eat while watching T.V. or in front of the computer.
