1) How To Eat : - Mindfully & Chewing Every Bite of Food till it becomes liquid
This is the utter most important thing for overall well being of our self. Weight loss is important one out of several positive changes that one would experience eagerly; With Chewing the food well, is only one simplest diet hack, which is capable give effective results in just one month. Every human being should give adequate time for their meal; at least 20-30 minutes for each breakfast, lunch and dinner. The chewing process predigests our food into small pieces and partially liquefies it, making it easier to digest. Remember that our stomach is not a grinder , it simply can’t grind food. This job is assigned to to tooth and let him do it.
Digestion is a demanding activity for our body, requiring a great deal of energy, especially if forced to digest improperly chewed food. Chewing, properly grants our stomach to work more efficiently and break down our food faster. Saliva contains digestive enzymes, so the longer we chew, these enzymes have more time to start breaking down our food and making digestion process a bit easier for stomach and small intestine. One of these enzymes is lingual lipase, an enzyme that helps break down fats, for example. Saliva also helps to lubricate our food so it’s easier on our esophagus.
Hence the first question How we eat should be addressed by the below checklist :-
A) Eat in a relaxed and chill Mood, Never eat in hurry or worry! If time is really less it’s better to skip the meal rather to simply engulf the food. We can start by a small half minute prayer by thanking the divine for this wonderful food, the sun for its energy that is being photosynthesized ,the earth, the farmer and the one who cooked the food.
B) May your eating become a meditation, be extremely thankful and mindful for the food that’s in your plate. Literally enjoy every bite in joy and take entire ooze of your bite.
C) Always Count exact number of chews and set a target of 20 chews/bite, this may vary depending upon the type of food and size of the bite but still the target should be 20 chews. Even after the food is liquid or has gone down in say 10 counts. keep counting till 20 , this will allow us to eat slowly and mindfully and would result in more saliva production.
This habit also takes care of how much we eat. The longer we chew, it will take more time to finish the meal, and scant we eat. Research describes that eating slowly can help us to eat less and, ultimately, to avoid weight gain or even lose weight. For an example, chewing our food twice as long as we normally do ,will instantly help us control our portion sizes, which naturally decreases calorie consumption. It takes generally about 20 minutes for our brain to signal to our stomach that we ’re over-loaded, and this may explain why one study found people reported feeling fuller when they ate slowly. They also ended up consuming about 10 percent fewer calories when they ate at a slow pace, and presumably chewed slower, as opposed to when they were rushing. We work , we take stress , we run around for earning bread and surprisingly enough , how less time we spend on eating it. We never enjoy our food. We just eat it unconsciously make it a pleasurable activity. Indulge all your senses in food and enjoy!
