Just in case you are on a weight-loss journey and thinking of reducing your portion sizes, that is one strategy that works. There is a simple trick you can apply to make it even more effective.
What many people don’t know is that when you are hungry and begin to eat, your brain needs about 20 minutes to send signals that your stomach is full. This means the first 5 to 10 minutes of eating is when you are most tempted to rush your food and gulp everything down. That is exactly what you want to avoid.
Instead, don’t rush your food. Take your time and enjoy it. Feel the taste in your mouth. Let the food mix well with your taste buds, and allow your saliva to draw out all the goodness in it as your mouth fully enjoys the experience. Then, chew well. Let your teeth also engage with the food and do their proper work.
All that time will save you hours, if not months, in the gym. By the time you are done chewing, the food is already well prepared for easy digestion in your stomach and intestines, and your body begins to feel satisfied. This gives your brain enough time to respond properly before you take in too many calories.
So, when you eat, always set a target of 20 to 30 minutes for your meals... and if you don’t have the time, you can just grab a cup of coffee or lemon tea.
