Die 5 häufigsten Ernährungsfehler Einfache Tricks für eine bessere Gesundheit

It truly means a lot to me to inspire you to embrace better health in your everyday life Many of the conditions we now refer to as systemic diseases such as diabetes cardiovascular disease obesity or cancer Poor health habits in daily life can also lead to these issues That's exactly where we step in We break it down into a simple formula We turn everyday habits into health strategies But first you need to know exactly which mistakes you're making in daily life The reality check is designed to help you quickly navigate your daily life Today we start with five common nutrition mistakes I'm now stating my decades of medical experience in the most blunt way possible: most people are killing themselves with fork and knife Since refrigerators became common in Europe around the 1930s we've always had something to eat within easy reach And we often eat quite heartily too The idea that you must eat just because a certain hour has struck It's just as incorrect as the idea of suddenly needing a snack in the middle of something In Ayurveda there is a fundamental rule Eat only after you've fully digested your previous meal Allow time between meals and skip meals if you've eaten too much and too heavily beforehand A study published in the medical journal CME shows that Germany has a high number of death cases due to diet-related cardiovascular diseases olds a leading position in Western Europe Researchers particularly emphasize the significance of overeating and unhealthy diet as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases The link to this study is available below as always It's ideal to have your main meal at noon Why Because as Ayurveda teaches midday is when the digestive fire is strongest In Ayurveda this is known as Agni—best when burning strongly This means you digest and metabolize your food most effectively at midday In the evening however you should eat lighter meals— not only because your gut bacteria change after sunset o longer involved in the digestive process not only because our digestive enzymes are no longer produced in sufficient amounts and insulin sensitivity decreases in the evening This means the body requires more insulin o help regulate blood sugar levels after dinner This causes blood sugar levels to rise more significantly after eating and remain elevated for a longer period Excess sugar in the blood cannot effectively enter the cells and instead is stored in the liver and fat cells as fat Now you may understand the Chinese proverb I leave dinner to my enemies Scientists from the University of Geneva discovered at the biological clock regulates numerous bodily functions and influences the effect of the hormone insulin These findings could also lead to accounting for the time of day when calculating insulin doses for diabetes patients Learn more about this below in the sources As you can see all these topics could be categorized under the umbrella term prevention Nutrition as well as other aspects that will be immediately put to the test in reality They are preventive measures that shape health in everyday life Our healthcare system by contrast focuses primarily on repair We step in only after a person has already fallen ill I believe that needs to change Prevention should be at the heart of our crumbling healthcare system become a key factor in the center That is why I warmly welcome you Join my free webinar on March 12 at 7 PM Let's discuss how we train health consultants each people everyday practical and efficient prevention methods in a way that makes them enjoy a healthy lifestyle Whether they're already working in a healthcare profession or learning it for themselves and their family The reward: more energy greater mental strength deeper fulfillment Interested I look forward to hearing from you Mistake number three Drink your beverages cold with meals A very important Ayurvedic rule states never drink cold liquids with your meals I'm talking about that chilled beer or Coke with ice cubes Why There are three reasons First our enzymes including our digestive enzymes function most effectively at a body temperature of 37 degrees Drink something icy cold and while your digestive tract processes your food your digestive enzymes will work significantly less effectively They build up as Ayurveda puts it toxins These are metabolic waste products In common usage the term slags is employed However doctors strongly disapprove of this Secondly a cold drink slows down the release of digestive enzymes And thirdly it inhibits peristalsis the rhythmic movement of your digestive tract This ensures that food and digestive contents are thoroughly mixed and transported onward That's why it's better to skip the cold dessert after your meal as well Now let's move on to mistake number four You're consuming hidden sugars Even if it sounds harsh the food industry isn't exactly on our side Make no mistake The best food is naturally fresh unprocessed ingredients— nothing that's been tampered with For example eat yogurt plain and sweeten it yourself with some good honey preferably from a local beekeeper In a fruit yogurt weighing 150 grams also a small cup can hold up to eight sugar cubes Wait a minute would we really put Add eight cubes of sugar voluntarily Manufacturers often use different names to make the sugar content less obvious Hidden sugars such as maltose also known as malt sugar and dextrose which is produced from starch through enzymatic breakdown Sucrose which is ordinary table sugar or glucose grape sugar An Austrian- German study investigated ow different types of sugar affect satiety The results showed that the type of sugar consumed affects how quickly and how long one feels full So it's not just about the quantity but also the type of sugar in the diet is important The researchers advise reducing the consumption of added sugar stead turning to natural sugar sources like fruit which provide not only sugar but also fiber and nutrients It promotes not only general health but also supports feelings of fullness bringing us to our final point Error number 5: You're eating too quickly Did you know your body takes about 20 minutes to register that it's full o register its feeling of fullness This actually happens in our brain It receives various bodily signals through a complex system of signaling chemicals At the saturation process at least 10 hormones are involved originating from the intestines adipose tissue pancreas liver and brain These hormones interact o regulate both short-term and long-term signals for hunger and satiety And that takes time Eating quickly often leads to consuming more food than necessary Even worse is eating while watching TV or scrolling through social media because then you don’t even realize you’re eating too quickly The consequence of overeating digestive issues bloating or a bloated abdomen Metabolic issues and long-term weight gain My tip Eat slowly Chew your food thoroughly and savor each meal Periodically set down your knife and fork throughout eating For instance smell your food and fully and mindfully notice it I sincerely hope this reality check helps you become a bit more mindful in your daily life It is precisely here in the daily ups and downs that health is created Please let me know in the comments if you'd like us to do more reality checks and which particularly interest you Warmest regards Ulrich Bauerhofer
