EATING SLOW VS. EATING FAST

In other words, you will cause your Basal Metabolic Rate decrease, and your body will not want to burn off any excess

NIAN GAO - TIKOY

Tikoy or Nián gāo is a type of rice cake made from glutinous rice flour and considered as a centerpiece during Chinese New Year. This is also popularly known as Chinese New Year pudding.
The Philippines is once considered as the melting pot of Asia. People of different origins call it home – including the Chinese. Chinese customs, traditions, and good food were embraced by the Filipino’s and even make it a part of their own.
The legend behind the Tikoy tells about a Kitchen God that observes the behavior of each family for a year. It was said the Kitchen God goes back to heaven before the Chinese New Year to report the findings; a depressing report would mean a year of bad luck for the family. According to the legend, feeding sticky rice cake to the Kitchen God will make it difficult for him to say anything against the family – it will be difficult to speak when his mouth is full and the sticky rice cake will keep his mouth shut.

FOOD CRAVING DURING PREGNANCY - PAGLILIHI

“Nobody is sure why some women have pregnancy food cravings. Some experts say cravings, and their flip side, food aversions, are protective, even if there is no scientific data to back up that theory.” I always thought that with the mix-up of hormones during pregnancy, it was understandable for my wife to have food cravings.
Our concept of paglilihi, however, is broader than food cravings among pregnant women. Paglilihi could also refer to matters or things other than food. We have this notion, regardless of whether such belief is baseless or not, that what a pregnant woman craves somehow has an effect on the unborn child.

FILIPINO FOOD - EMBUTIDO

Embutido is a Filipino style of meatloaf. This filipino food dish is one of the favorite filipino dish that i love to eat especially with the portion of hard-cooked eggs and sausages.

They said that “embutido” means that it is wrapped with the skin of the pig's intestines. But this embutido is just wrapped with an aluminum foil because some doesn't like to eat food that contains internal organs of the animals.

Embutido can be served as cold cuts; lightly pan a sliced pieces or fried the whole then sliced. It is also best that you dip a slice of embutido with your favorite food sauce. As for me, my favorite is the sweet chili sauce or dip it with ketchup. Hmm…delicious... Enjoy!!!

FOOD BEFORE INTERCOURSE

Testosterone is highly important for both men and women. However, men produce around 40 to 60 times more testosterone than women. Normally, testosterone levels in men are about 30% higher in the morning than at night time. This may explain why men are more interested in sex in the morning and is part of the reason for spontaneous morning erections. Low testosterone levels decreases libido, increases the loss of muscles and bone density but most importantly, it increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Between 8-12 million men have low or borderline low testosterone.

Why Do We Over Eat?

Overeating is such a big word, It is so general and it can touch almost anybody.
In our community, overeating is almost like a curse.
I believe many of you think of yourselves as overeaters,
But there are different kinds of overeating and different kinds of solutions for them.
The most common overeating example is sweets,
It is not only applied to overweight people but to anyone with a weakness to sweets.
I have been there myself, tasting one little piece of chocolate made me go berserk and eat every sweet thing in sight, luckily I was too lazy to go out and get some more.
The best way to solve this is to never take this first bite,
I know it’s difficult, I’ve been there.
If it’s really hard for you, just forbid all sweets from your home and remove temptation.
Another kind of over eating is emotional eating.
I can assume most of us are familiar with that too.
Emotional eating is when you eat to relieve stress, feel better or out of boredom.
This is a slippery slope, try not to get there if you can.
If you already have emotional eating problems,
You should replace the food with another stress relieving method.
You should try eating sugar free gum instead of eating a sandwich when you know you are only eating emotionally and not out of hunger.
This brings me to the next example, habits.
Bad eating habits can often cause overeating even if you are not aware of it.
For example, if you are used to eat before going to sleep,
You are effectively damage your own dieting efforts.
And it is all just because your used to it, nothing more.
The simple solution is to start and check yourself,
What are you eating? When are you eating? and most importantly:
Why are you eating?
You will notice that you eat for so many reasons while only one of them is hunger.
The last and most complicated overeating example is addiction.
I know some people who define themselves as food addicts.
It is a very tough situation to be in and some of those people really believe they have no power over food.
But it is definitely something you can fix.
You can go to a support group, you can even go to a psychologist.
I even heard of a mother whose refrigerator contains only her diet food and she has different compartments for her husband and kids.
Most cases of overeating can be sorted to one of these four examples.
So try being creative, you know yourself better than anyone else.
You should find out what works for you and do it.
I hope you take action and make a change for yourself, no one will do it for you.
Good luck,
Thanks Man for the Picture....you know what i mean..lol
