Slowing down

慢下來

Eat slower.

吃得慢一些。

Instead of cramming food down our throats as quickly as possible—leading to overeating and a lack of enjoyment of our food—learn to eat slowly.

不要盡可能快的把食物填滿我們的喉嚨——這樣會導致我們吃的太多，并且享受不到食物帶給我們的快樂，學著吃得慢一些。

Be mindful of each bite. Appreciate the flavors and textures. Eating slowly has the double benefit of making you fuller on less food and making the food taste better.

每一口都仔細品味。欣賞食物的味道和質地。吃得慢一些有兩個好處，不僅可以讓你吃得少一些就能吃飽，還可以讓食物更美味。

I suggest learning to eat more real food as well, with some great spices (instead of fat and salt and sugar and frying for flavor).

我建議嘗試吃更多有著非常好的香料的真正的食物（少吃一些脂肪、鹽、糖含量高和油炸的東西）。
