Did you know that just by changing the way food can reduce the amount of excess food that you should not eat? Yes I do. You need to be fed in sufficient quantities, no less and no more. Lack of or excessive eating makes you fat. But how to know the amount of food is enough? Is the amount sufficient for the portions you eat your usual meal everyday? Not necessarily the case.

Knowing the right food portions are very important in your diet. To find out your real eating, try to eat slowly. It means you slow down the eating process. If you usually able to spend a portion of fried rice noodles or dumplings in 5 minutes and make it 20 minutes or even more if you can.

Why?

Did you know that your body takes 20 minutes to tell the brain when we’re full? With slow food, we can prevent a glut or overeating, because there is enough time for the brain to receive information that we are full. When you think of a healthy diet, I know what you think. Surely many of you are thinking about food which is too bad, no taste, not fried, it should be boiled, and so forth.

Let us change your perception!

I’m not saying you should not eat fat or rice at all in your diet. If you do not eat fat, your body will hurt, because it serves to dissolve the fat vitamin A, D, E, K, which is useful for the body. However, the fat you should consume healthy fats. How fat is healthy? It was easy, healthy fats are monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats, or so-called monounsaturated fat and polyunsaturated fat.

Where did you get healthy fats to our diet? Healthy fats found in: extra virgin olive oil, hazelnut, almond, avocado, cashew and others. If you change your cooking oil with extra virgin olive oil (pure olive oil), then you cook with healthy oils. Worry it will turn bad? Take it easy. Olive oil or olive oil exactly the same as any other cooking oil made from palm oil, only much better.
