用心飲食：與食物和平共處，華盛頓郵報，2013年6月5日
We know a whole lot about what (kale) and what not - (potato chips) to eat.
我們對什么可以吃（甘藍）什么不可以吃（薯片）了解很多，
But what about the how and why of eating?
但對怎么吃以及為什么吃又了解多少呢？
Those questions are just as important, says Vanessa King, nutrition professor at American University and a proponent of "mindful eating"--the how and why of eating--along with the what.
美國大學提倡“用心飲食”的營養(yǎng)學教授Vanessa King說，怎樣吃以及為什么吃這些問題與吃什么同樣重要。
"We all develop a lot of automatic patterns around eating, " says Kristeller, co-founder of the Center for Mindful Eating,
“用心飲食”的創(chuàng)始人之--Kristeller說:“我們都有很多有關(guān)吃的習慣性模式。”
who has a doctorate in psychology and whose research focus is food intake regulation and eating disorders.
Kristeller擁有心理學博士學位，并致力于研究食物攝取和飲食調(diào)節(jié)。
"Eating everything on our plate is a perfect example of one of those patterns. " she says.
她還說，“把盤子里的東西吃完就是這些模式中的一個很好的例子”。
"Mindful eating is (about) bringing your attention to a more calm place, " says Kristeller.
Kristeller博士說，“用心飲食是把注意力轉(zhuǎn)移到一個更平靜的地方”，
"And then you might start observing yourself and learning about yourself in a nonjudgmental way. "
“然后你會開始觀察自己并用一種客觀的方式來認知自我”。
If observing is the first step, the second step is connecting the body and the mind, says Elise Museles, a nutrition and eating psychology educator in Bethesda.
貝賽斯達的營養(yǎng)和飲食心理教育家Elise Museles說，如果觀察是第一步，那第二步就是身體和心靈的連接。
"I find that for many of us, the biggest thing we're missing is what our body is telling us, " Museles says.
“我發(fā)現(xiàn)，我們當中的很多人最大的疏忽是忽視了那些身體告訴我們的信息，
Slowing down allows you to taste and feel textures, to feel full sooner with less."
吃慢一點，細細品味，你很快就感覺飽了。”Museles說。
Presenting the food in a pleasing way is part of that slowing-down process.
在放慢速度的過程當中，用讓自己心情愉快的方式擺放食物也是重要的一步。
Another tool is to keep a food diary.
King教授說，另一種方法是不斷的記飲食日記。
It makes you observe your behavior in a whole new way, King says.
它讓你以一種全新的方式觀察你的飲食行為。
"Mindful eating is about cultivating that inner gourmet—really letting yourself enjoy the food you enjoy—just in smaller quantities." Kristeller says.Thank you.
“用心飲食就是培養(yǎng)自己成為內(nèi)在的食客，讓自己真正享受自己喜歡的食物，只是量要小。”Kristeller博士說。謝謝。
