Why the next meal you eat should be planned
Some of us merely eat when we’re hungry while others like to stick to a schedule (8 a.m. breakfast, 12 noon lunch, 6 p.m. dinner). Well, new research has come out showing that those who plan their meal ahead – and pack it themselves – eat healthier overall.
The findings were published in the journal Public Health Nutrition. College students were studied by researchers to uncover if those who packed and prepared their lunch and ate a regular breakfast and dinner had healthier diets. These individuals tended to avoid fast food, eat more fruits and vegetables and steer clear of sugary beverages more often than those who did not eat regularly.
Don’t think you have enough time to prepare and pack? Well, the take-away here is to plan ahead in order to eat better overall. If you schedule time to pack your food, you won’t feel rushed.
