The secret of staying slim could be as simple as keeping your mind on your meals.
Research suggests that (free) ourselves from distractions and concentrating completely on the food that is in front of us,
(help) us stay in shape. Such "mindful eating" ensures that the mind is in tune with(协调) the body, enabling it to "hear" the chemical messages
tell it that we are full. Digestion involves a complex series of
(signal) between the gut(肠道) and the nervous system and it takes about 20 minutes for the brain _
(tell) that the body has eaten enough. This means that if someone eats too quickly, the signals will come slowly, leading to overeating. Scientists say that distractions make it
(hard) for us to remember what we have eaten. This absent-mindedness stops us from feeling full _
sends us reaching for some snacks later on. It is thought that our memory of what we have eaten plays a key role
controlling appetite. This means that distractions stop us remembering
detail of what we have eaten, leaving us feeling hungry. Before snacking, dieters should ask themselves if they are really hungry and if not, distract themselves by going for a walk or reading.
Done (proper), mindful eating may not only leave you slim, but also make you enjoy mealtimes.
