When you are on a new path for a healthier lifestyle there are some simple steps that can make a difference.
By eating slow, you digest food better, so it will be easier to lose or maintain your weight, your body will be better hydrate, and you’ll have greater satisfaction with your meals. On the other hand, eating quickly leads to poor digestion, lower satisfaction, and increased weight gain. That’s why the message is clear: Slow down your eating, enjoy your food and improve health and well-being.

Eating slowly makes you digest better. Yet you also feel more satisfied with each meal and you lose or maintain weight more easily.
Think of every time you are on a rush over a meal and barely sit down. In this sense, meals are a stressing time for busy people making them eventually eat more. Finishing your meal before your natural satiety kicks in, and suddenly ending up makes people feel uncomfortable and overstuffed.

Why eat slowly?
When you eat slowly, taste food, feel the texture of the food, savor a meal, and appreciate each bite you leave the table feeling good not only in our body but in the whole eating experience even if all you eat was a snack.

Some helpful tips
Sit down to eat in a calm environment with minimal distractions. Don’t eat while driving, watching TV, texting, etc. Pay attention to your food not only in flavors but in quantity.
Choose high-fiber foods that take more time to chew, such as fresh fruits and vegetables.
Put down your utensils between bites. Take a moment. Breathe. If you’re eating with other people, enjoy the conversation for a few minutes.
Try setting a minimum number of chews per bite. This will feel strange at first, but give it a try and see what you discover.
Use smaller plates. This obviously reduces the intake of food each meal.
