Healthy eating is more than the food on your plate—it is also about how
you think about food. It is important to slow down and think about food as
nourishment rather than just something to gulp down in between meetings
or on the way to pick up the kids or dash down to the office.

EAT BREAKFAST, AND
EAT SMALLER MEALS
THROUGHOUT THE DAY.
A healthy breakfast can jump-
start your metabolism, and
eating small, healthy meals
throughout the day (rather
than the standard three large
meals) keeps your energy up
and your metabolism going.
EAT WITH OTHERS
WHENEVER POSSIBLE.
Eating with other people
has numerous social
and emotional benefits
and allows you to model
healthy eating habits.
Eating in front of the TV or
computer often leads to
mindless overeating.

WATER.
Water helps flush our systems of
waste products and toxins, yet
many people go through life
dehydrated, causing tiredness, low
energy, and headaches. It is com-
mon to mistake thirst for hunger, so
staying well hydrated will also help
you make healthier food choices.

IT’S NOT JUST WHAT YOU
EAT, IT’S HOW YOU EAT!
