As you eat today, sloooooow down. Chew slowly and a lot of times. This will not only help with weight loss, but more importantly, will help you avoid the dreaded diabetes. In recent studies, people who ate quickly were a whopping 75% more likely to develop the disease. In our busy, hectic lives we tend to eat too quickly and mindlessly. Take the time to enjoy your meals. Your health and well being depends on it!

This statistic “people who ate quickly were a whopping 75% more likely to develop the disease” is really interesting.
Do we need to eat more slowly to get more nutrients from our food or…?

I don’t know the answer to that, Carole…I think maybe by eating too fast the insulin response has to happen too quickly, too and over the long run, perhaps that impairs how well the insulin process works…
