Eating Slowly May Help You Stay Slim October 22, 2008
We’ve spoken before on Long Life Blog about the importance of eating less when planning to live a long, healthy life - with the other important factor being staying happy of course. Now new research from Japan indicates that people who eat slowly are much less likely to overeat, and hence more likely to stay slim. So when you were told as a kid to chew everything 50 times before you swallow, now you can see why.. that and the saliva in your mouth helps pre-digest the food. Ah, old wives tales.
