To maintain a slim and healthy body, you must first establish a correct diet concept

Summer vacation is here, and it is a great time to wear bikinis and go to the beach. In order to show off their good figures and avoid flying butterfly sleeves, big bellies and swimming rings, or even rabbits following carrots running around, many women have put all their efforts into the battle of body shaping. However, if they want to maintain a slim and good figure for a long time, they also need to pay attention to healthy eating.

Principle 1: Eating breakfast helps metabolism

A day's plan begins in the morning, and breakfast is the most important of the three meals a day. Breakfast not only provides energy to the body and helps the brain function, but also inhibits the rise of hunger hormones, making the body less likely to feel hungry. A study by Daniela Jakubowicz, a professor at Tel Aviv University in Israel, also found that the body's metabolism is most active in the morning. If you eat a balanced breakfast, the body will have enough time to process the excess calories.

Principle 2: Eat three meals regularly and eat a balanced diet

After eating a large amount at one time, it is easy to stimulate the secretion of more digestive hormones, which speeds up the digestion of food and reduces the frequency of hunger. Once you eat large amounts of food frequently, it is easy to get out of good shape. In order to maintain a good figure, you should adhere to the three meals a day rule and keep the principle of "eat a good breakfast, a full lunch, and a small dinner". For breakfast, you should consume a balanced amount of cereals, proteins, fruits, vegetables and other foods; for lunch, you should eat a moderate amount; for dinner, because the body's energy consumption is reduced when falling asleep at night, the excess calories will be synthesized into fat in large quantities under the action of insulin, so you should avoid eating too much or greasy food.

Principle 3: Focus on eating and avoid overeating

Many people like to play with their mobile phones, watch TV, or read newspapers while eating. However, this can easily lead to accidentally overeating, or even forgetting to chew properly. Gobbling down food quickly not only increases the burden on the stomach and intestines, but also forces the digestive organs to accelerate the metabolism of nutrients, increasing hunger. Therefore, it is recommended that you focus on the food when eating, fully experience the eating process, and avoid overconsumption.

Principle 4: Add water and reduce salt

Generally speaking, the human body needs about 2000cc of water every day. Drinking a moderate amount of water can help dissolve fat, increase metabolic rate, and maintain water balance in the body. Drinking water on an empty stomach in the early morning, in particular, can promote blood circulation, flush the stomach and intestines to help with bowel movements, and reduce fat accumulation. However, doctors also remind that drinking water should be warm and should be drunk in small sips, not too fast.
