These spring greens mixes from Braddock Farms are as crisp and fresh as the first day I bought them and that was nearly 2 weeks ago!
I like to add lettuce to warm grains to help increase how much I chew my food. If you’ve seen me eat while I’ve had the munchies you’ve probably been traumatized. I’m dainty but so so fast!
Chewing food properly is a habit that can reduce risk of obesity, diabetes, sexual or urinary incontinence, depression and anxiety. To put it in perspective, it’s really all about communicating with the brain what’s happening during the meal. Chewing at least 40 times communicates satiety.
To chew twice and swallow means more food is entering into our stomach than the brain recognizes, which causing us to overeat.
Overeating begets spikes in glucose, begets spikes in insulin, begets, insulin resistance, begets destroyed glucose regulation.
