How fast you eat plays a larger role in overeating than most people realize.
When you eat quickly, your body doesn’t have time to register what you’ve consumed. Appetite-regulating signals lag behind, which makes it easier to eat more than you need.
A simple guideline: Take at least twenty minutes to eat a meal.
Sit down. Put away electronic devices. Chew your food well.
When you eat slower, you’re more likely to feel satisfied with less food and enjoy your meals more.
No special rules. Just fewer calories without effort.
