A lifestyle tip from a 120 year old.

On one of the Japanese islands...

I forget exactly which one...

The inhabitants can live to be up to 120 years old...

This is due mainly to their lifestyle...

When interviewed they were asked to give a few tips...

of course their diet was very natural and healthy...

which included a lot of vegetables and fish...

A good one that was divulged was that this particular gentleman advised, was to stop eating when you are 80% full...

Which is at the point you are satisfied,

Eating natural balanced food usually means you are satisfied quicker than not very nutritious food...

My (anecdotal) view on this is that when the body has had enough nutrients you start to feel satisfied...

Which could be why and I don't know about you, but when eating non nutritious food I can just keep going and going...

Although the feeling of being full has a delayed response, usually 10 minutes after stopping eating you realise how full you really are...

By the way, thank you for reading the blog I massively enjoy writing it...

Happy New Year!
