Nutritionist Polina Zhuravleva said that the principle of three meals a day, which includes breakfast, lunch and dinner, is nothing more than a myth. There are no clear instructions on the number of meals, it is important to comply with individual needs, explained He speaks to the Public News Service.
“You should eat when you are really hungry. But the main thing is not to overeat. There is no strict rule that you need to eat every three hours, we are all individual and you need to trust your feelings,” explained the expert.
Zhuravleva added that you should pay attention to meal timing, there is no need to prolong it. The feeling of fullness does not come immediately, and if you sit at the table for too long, this puts you in danger of overeating. The expert concluded that it is therefore important to eat when you feel hungry, but to finish the meal on time and leave the table.
Let us remind you that nutritionists say: emphasisIf a person eats too quickly, he/she experiences a feeling of hunger after eating. This also happens if there is not enough fluid in the body – the brain confuses thirst and hunger.
