Weight Loss Happens Naturally When You Have the Right Attitude About Food! (Part 2) :
During the time that I lived in Asia, I became accustomed to hearing about the health benefits associated with the foods that were being served and eaten. It was clear that nutrition and health were the priority and focus of each and every meal. This focus even extended itself to how foods were prepared and served. Steaming and quick / stir frying were the preferred ways of cooking vegetables to avoid overcooking which destroys nutritional integrity. Fresh whole vegetables and fruits were an integral part of every meal. Spices and condiments which were used also provided specific health benefits in addition to providing taste enhancement.
In contrast, the Western attitude related to food tends to be driven more by convenience and how good food tastes. Tasting good has made food and eating a pleasure driven experience that often ignores nutrition and health.
