Chew Your Food, Eat Slowly, Lose Weight


Your stomach is not supplied with teeth; your teeth are in your mouth. They were put there for a purpose. Horace Fletcher, the mastication expert, proved that you can live on half or at least three-quarters the amount of food you are eating at present if you will simply masticate your food thoroughly. As a rule, if you will simply retain the idea that food should be swallowed at all times without effort, that is, that you should never make an effort to swallow your food, and never, by any means, wash it down with water, milk, tea or any other liquid.

I we would take the time to relax and chew slowly, we would automatically eat less. If we eat less, it is easier to lose weight. Plan ahead and take the time you need to chew, chew, chew. Along with eating more slowly you should take a look at Fat Loss 4 Idiots. It is a GREAT program that is HEALTHY and helps you lose up to 11 pounds the first week.
