Tag: Mindful eating strategies

According to a study conducted in the Netherlands, more than half of adults reported eating and watching TV simultaneously at least once during a seven-day period. The frequent habit of distracted eating, such as eating while watching TV, has been consistently linked to overconsumption and is a contributing factor to weight gain and obesity.

According to research, it can take up to 20 minutes for your brain to receive signals from your stomach indicating fullness, which is why many people unintentionally overeat. Learning how to tell if you've eaten enough involves reconnecting with your body's internal signals, moving past external food cues, and distinguishing between physical satiety and feeling uncomfortably stuffed.
