Recently
through a double blind study
participants were asked to count how many times they chewed their food before swallowing it.....
and the results showed that the participants that chewed the most were found to eat less....and feel " full " sooner
it's a delayed response "the full feeling" it takes 20 -25 minutes to kick in normally.... and by then it's usually too late...
even water can give you that full feeling...doesn't have to be food.
back to chewing:
apparently after chewing "sufficiently" a substance gets released that shuts off your appetite. Insufficient chewing or gulping down food prevents this from happening... and eating while watching TV makes ya rush thru your meal...wolfing it down.
so choose a smaller plate... and give yourself that 20 or so minutes between helpings to allow the "i'm full" (satisfied) signal time to reach the ole brain
