Don’t Overeat!

I know we often like to keep eating until… we can no longer eat a drop more, but the feeling that lasts for a while afterwards of being incredibly stuffed isn’t something we should strive for. It makes us feel heavy, and indicates that digestion isn’t working at its peak.
When eating, pay attention! When you feel yourself getting full, look for those last few tasty morsels (preferably the healthy ones) and finish up your meal. This will leave room in your stomach for optimal digestion and leave you with more energy.
Instead of washing your meal down with a drink that will dilute the digestive juices in your stomach, try some juicy veggies like cucumber or peppers.
