Everyday Eating

Once you have determined the nature of your diet, it is important to develop and observe some rules of when you eat, in order to provide enough energy as well as balance your metabolic needs. We are somewhat unique in our Western culture with regard to the frequency of our eating patterns. Although many of us hold to the notion of ‘three square meals’, depending on what we eat during meal time, many of us end up eating much more than this, indulging in several snacks or ‘treats’ throughout the day that we use to elevate mood and energy.
