In addition to eating healthy and delicious food, we also need to be a mindful eater to prevent an array of health issues. Studies show that people who are relaxed and mindful during meal times eat less, preventing binge and over eating and gaining weight, as well as  indigestion, heartburn, anxiety, and so on.

Let this chart guide you to becoming a mindful eater even a few times a week.
