How to eat to keep fit and how to eat to avoid getting fat?
So besides overeating, what problems should we pay attention to in our daily diet so as not to cause various problems?

1. Eat regularly.

In the fast-paced life and high-pressure social reality, many people's life rules have been disrupted. Because of work, three meals a day, either confused or absent. Or don't eat in the morning, barely eat at noon, and treat yourself to eat more good food at night. These irregular eating habits are actually based on hurting the stomach. Over time, various problems will follow, such as overwork and obesity. In addition, some people will do whatever they want even if they have three meals regularly, such as picky eaters, fatty, sweet, spicy, ice and snow, sweets and so on. And have bad habits such as overeating, which will not do any good. Su Wen's On the Method of Storing Qi has long put forward five flavors of healthy diet, namely, "five grains are the supplement, five fruits are the help, five animals are the benefit, and five dishes are the supplement". Tell us that the diet should be reasonable and balanced, not picky eaters, but also distinguish between staple food and non-staple food, and balance meat and vegetables. Sun Simiao, a famous medical scientist in the Tang Dynasty, mentioned in Sun Zhenren that "eating occasionally" and "if there is no disease, five spices must always be preserved", and also reminded people to pay attention to moderation, fast spicy food, advocate light diet and protect their health. In short, in the view of Chinese medicine, health preservation is to conform to the nature of heaven, so let nature take its course, that is to say, we should eat moderately, don't eat some foods that are too irritating, and focus on lightness to protect the spleen and stomach. Three meals should be regular, nutrition should be reasonable and quantitative, and don't overeat.

Can all of us do these seemingly simple things?

2. Don't play with your mobile phone while eating.

In the era of mobile phones, many people are reluctant to throw away their mobile phones while eating. Some people don't watch their mobile phones, chat or read books. In short, they can't really concentrate on eating. What's the harm? First, it affects digestion, and second, it is easy to overeat. Fang Yi, a Thousand Daughters, advocates that "there is no exaggeration in eating", which means that you should concentrate on chewing slowly when eating, which is conducive to digestion and will not overeat. This is true for both adults and children. The Center for Children and Family Health Promotion of the School of Nursing, University of Minnesota, found that if parents allow children to play with mobile phones during meals, children tend to have a single diet, prefer high-calorie foods, are prone to malnutrition, and have a relatively poor family atmosphere.

Therefore, the researchers suggest that it is best to stop using electronic products when eating, especially for underage children, and parents should limit their behavior.

3. To be beautiful and thin, chew more.

Many people gobble up their meals, chew them casually and swallow them, especially men, which is not good either. Eating too fast will make the brain too late to respond to the information of "satiety". It is often when the brain receives information that makes you feel full that you eat too much.

How should I eat? Our ancestors told us long ago. Sun Simiao, a medical sage, advocated that "food should be cooked and chewed" and that eating and chewing should be long and thin, and it is not appropriate to swallow it and engage in it rashly.

"Yang Yan Yan Yong" also said: "No matter porridge, rice or snacks, you should chew them carefully before swallowing them." Eating like this is not only good for digestion, but also can stabilize the mood and avoid overeating and hurting the stomach. There is also a saying in Chinese medicine that "the spleen opens its mouth". If your mouth doesn't work hard, your spleen and stomach will work harder! In this way, the spleen and stomach will be very tired and the digestive system will gradually weaken. The food we eat is not digested well for a long time, which will form phlegm and dampness in the body, leading to bad breath, damp heat in the stomach, acne on the face and so on. The food we eat is blocked into fat! What's more, because of the weak digestion and absorption ability, we eat more, but absorb less, so it is easy to feel hungry, and then continue to eat, continue to eat, and chew less, and our spleen and stomach continue to be injured. Under the circulation of nausea, we can't clear the qi, and the qi and blood are insufficient, so we can't turn it into essence. Our bodies will get fatter and fatter, and our bodies will get worse and worse. Experts say that everyone chews more in the mouth to make the spleen and stomach healthy, and it is easier to become beautiful and thin, and our absorption efficiency will also be improved. Moreover, modern research also believes that chewing slowly can make all organs of the human body work regularly, thus burning excess fat in the body, and the best chewing times for fully mixing saliva with food is 30 times.

Another study also found that people with moderate speed were 29% less obese than those who wolfed down. The proportion of people who chew slowly is 42% lower. Many stars chew slowly in order to keep fit, especially at home. It is reported that the self-disciplined idol Kun can chew jiaozi 93 times. Some people may say that she is melodramatic, but she is outstanding in figure, not fat, and not bad. It is also reported that actress kiku took a bite of whole wheat bread and chewed it 33 times before swallowing it! Many netizens shouted, "I can't, no wonder I'm so fat!"

10-year-old girl imitated her and was scolded by her mother: Eat or leave! This poor little girl is really hard.

4. Have fun.

In addition to the above points, we should concentrate on eating, chew slowly and have a good time.

A quiet and happy mood is conducive to the digestion of the stomach, and an optimistic mood and a happy mood can greatly increase appetite. This is what Chinese medicine says, liver is smooth and spleen and stomach are healthy.

On the other hand, if you are in a bad mood and angry, your liver will go wrong and your mood will be depressed, which will restrict your spleen and stomach, affect your appetite and hinder your digestive function. Did we have such an experience when we were children? Speaking of eating, parents will lecture you, ask you about your academic performance, pick on your recent faults and so on. That the happy thing of eating immediately turned into a trial, and my mood plummeted and my appetite was greatly reduced. At present, many parents are also like this, and they like to cultivate their children at the dinner table. As everyone knows, such behavior has caused both mental and physical harm to children. The child's gastric juice secretion is reduced, and he has indigestion. He doesn't want to eat at the meal. In the long run, it will have a great impact on the normal growth and development of children. The ancients also said a long time ago, "Don't be angry after a meal, and don't eat after being angry." "People know how to eat and have to worry" warns us to keep a calm mood and a cheerful mood when eating, which is conducive to the digestion and absorption of food. Talking about unpleasant things at the dinner table, criticizing, reprimanding, and even quarreling are all acts that hurt yourself and your family. It not only affects children's physical and mental health, but also affects children's own physical health and family harmony.

In addition to the above, we also need to pay attention to after-dinner maintenance and appropriate activities. For example, Sun Simiao advocated that "eating the stomach will cure all diseases" and "walking after meals will lead to longevity". Proper exercise after meals, such as walking slowly, or massaging the abdomen for a certain period of time after meals, is good for your health.

Therefore, if you want to live a long and healthy life, you should eat moderately, don't overeat, and it is best to eat only seven points full.

In addition, you should pay attention to gargling after meals, which can ensure the cleanliness of your mouth and protect your teeth, which is good for your teeth and kidneys. Because in the view of Chinese medicine, the kidney is "the main bone to produce marrow" and "the tooth is bone", and the tooth is a mirror of human kidney health. When the essence in the kidney is sufficient, the tips of teeth will turn black. Oral cleaning is to protect the kidneys.
