Good Eating Habits
Below are 8 dietary habits, which you should follow:
1. Never Overeat: Overeating is one of the most common and dangerous
dietary habits. It often leads to obesity, which is a factor in many
other diseases. When you eat more, the digestive tract and other
organs get stressed, which can lead to the overworking and weakening
of those areas. Always eat in moderation. In fact, eating small meals
several times a day instead of one or two large meals is probably
better for most people.
2. Never Under Eat : All forms of under eating like skipping meals, or
eating only limited foods will lead to poor nutrition. Which will
eventually lead to health problems due to protein, calorie, vitamin,
or mineral deficiencies. Under eating causes symptoms like lack of
energy and subsequent weakness, malnourishment of internal organs,
skin problems, and hair loss, apart from medical conditions like
anorexia, nervosa and bulimia. So, even if you are on a diet make sure
you follow a plan that does not starve you.
3. Never Eat Late: Grandma's habit of eating dinner before sundown is
actually a very healthy practice. It is best to eat earlier in the
evening, ideally before dark, and not too heavily. You should also
engage in some activity, both mental and physical, after dinner; and
eat very little in the two or three hours before bedtime. If you have
been going to bed on a full stomach, let me tell you it is a very
unhealthy practice. The food just sits there, undigested through the
night, so that when you wake up you feel full and sluggish. So, to add
vitality in your life, start having your meals at the grandma time!
4. Do not follow rigid diet:
You would have come across people who have very rigid eating patterns
and who consume only a limited selection of foods. Though we all have
certain preferences or biases, but following a very rigid diet is
usually not in our best interest. It can lead to serious nutritional
According to the three-day nutritional report, my RDA intake is not accordingly to a desirable nutrition; I have deficiencies under micronutrients as well as macronutrients. In order to understand this procedure, I decided to break everything down by discussing all of the nutrients that fall below 80%. The goal is to recognize the factors that are affecting a desirable nutrition as well as to identify the food groups that will improve my nutritional health.
Freshman year of college is a turning point in most young adult’s lives. They are moving away from home and living on their own or with peers. Tammy Smith, an incoming freshman is concerned about what her diet will be like while living in a dorm. She has heard that a lot of females in college will develop eating disorders because of their poor diet and possible weight gain from lack of exercise. Tammy started to do research on the internet and stumbled across “Healthy Eating: A Practical Guide” published by Concordia University.

The more you feel full, the less you’ll crave to eat or snack. That alone will help in your diet since your caloric level won’t go overboard due to overeating.
One health-related topic that receives considerable attention concerns eating habits and the development of obesity. Biological, environmental, social, and psychological factors that influence eating are typically an aspect that is assessed with the discussion of obesity concerns in the United States (U.S.).

All throughout my life I have never had to watch my weight or worry about my eating habits. I have always been able to eat all kinds of different foods unhealthy or healthy it never mattered because of my high metabolism. I never stopped to think of the effects or the problems I could obtain over time if I kept eating the same way. However, after being deeply affected by this semester by my own food journal, The Food Inc. movie, and The Eater Reader I now have a better sense of wisdom and better understanding of the types of foods I was putting into my body, and have stopped drinking carbonation but with the lack of time I will not be able to give up my eating habits up.
Breakfast is one of the best ways to recharge your batteries. It is a perfect time to boost your energy. Studies also suggest that eating a healthy breakfast improves brain function particularly memory and recall. This is essential for soaking up new knowledge and applying it later for a big test.

First, a quick look at diets again, which require many changes in food and food habits, either right away or in a week or two while you remove all the items from your kitchen that are not allowed anymore, and you buy the new foods you need. In addition, these are not some minor changes, they can be strict calorie limitations and avoidances of whole food groups; a comparison of diets to a boot camp is pretty accurate. To be fair, most people who want to lose weight want that diet to work fast and work like magic, and to lose weight fast you pretty much have to (severely) limit carbs and calories and completely change your food habits. Not surprisingly, diets fail because either people can 't handle the food boot camp and give up the diet or
Staying healthy and eating right is a lifestyle that many people should consider. A juicy hamburger from McDonalds dripping with special sauce topped with cheese is not exactly considered a healthy meal. Our society today is busy and on the go at all times. It is so much easier to stop and get fast food and then continue on. However, we should stop and think; is it really worth it to not eat right and exercise?
Previously to taking this class, I had never given much thought to my eating habits. I always thought of the way I chose to eat as one of those things I didn’t need to concern myself with too heavily now because I’m a young broke college student. The way I eat is pretty similar to the way most of my friends eat and when you live away from home, that seems like the norm for people in college. However, after applying what I’ve learned in this class to my life, I’ve realized that the dietary choices I make now affect not only my current health, but my future health as well. So overall, I would say that my eating habits are pretty bad, but I’m working on making them better.
While I was tracking my eating for these three days, I began to learn about the benefits of the food that I am eating and the nourishment that they provide for my body. I had never realized how big of a role that the food that I eat plays in my everyday life. Eating has never been something that I really think about it is just something that I do. After I looking at the data of what I eat on Choose My Plate, I realized that my eating habits are far from balanced and that I needed to work on bringing my eating habits to a better balance. While there are a lot of things that I have been doing right, there are also many things that I can work on.
